Devron Booth has been a driving force behind Australian wine transport. As a Director of family firm, Booth Transport for 45 years until 2000, Devron helped build Booths into Australia's largest wine carrier and one of the Nation's largest family-run transport companies. Now semi-retired, Devron has invented a safety handrail system for tankers and is working with his son Stuart to manufacture and sell them worldwide.
Devron now devotes plenty of time to his other great passion, golf, and travels for most of the year overseas and interstate.
He is married to Lynne and has three married children and five grandchildren.
Devron's links to the Barossa include:
Booth Transport has been associated with the Barossa for more than 60 years and has developed a large Barossa workforce
Booth Transport has strongly and financially supported Barossa Vintage Festivals and Clubs.
