ALLAN Davis, Ted Alling, and Barry Large graduated from the Brock School of Business at Samford University in 2000. They credit their Brock School experience with teaching them the fundamentals of business management, ethics, strategy, and finance, so that upon graduating, all three felt fully equipped to 'dip their toes in the water' of entrepreneurship.
Today, they serve as principal partners and chief executives of Access America Transport, a third-party logistics firm they founded in 2002. The company, based in Chattanooga, Tennessee, has quickly grown into one of the leading logistic companies in the United States with sales revenues exceeding $48 million.
