Founded in 1994 as a small service operation focused on the inland marine market, Devall Diesel Services today is a subsidiary of Southern Devall.

David Devall discusses the family business history and evolution, as well as the importance of the relationship with Cummins, with Maritime Reporter TV in New Orleans.
