De Dell Seeds founder sells company to son

MELBOURNE — De Dell Seeds has turned over a new leaf, transferring ownership and management to the next generation. After 22 years, founder Vince Trudell is passing the reins to his eldest son, Will.

The pair made it official in August, with the younger Trudell purchasing the majority of shares and taking over day-to-day operations. Serving as vice-president for the past 10 years, he intends no major changes and plans to uphold the company’s same high standard of customer service.
