It was in July that officers executed warrants on Porthkerry Road, Barry, where 50kg of amphetamine were seized and a large amount of cannabis.
Further searches were conducted at a house linked to David and fellow drug dealer Nathan Mckernan where large amounts of cannabis and cash was seized.
Nearly 10kg of cannabis was seized during the investigation.
South Wales Police say mobile phones seized contained incriminating messages indicative of drug supply.
Both Mckernan and David were arrested, charged and remanded for possession with intent to supply class B drugs, amphetamine and cannabis.
On Friday, December 22, both men were sentenced following a guilty plea.
Mckernan was sentenced to five years and nine months in jail, while David was sentenced to four years and eight months in custody.
