HiTouch also provides space and move planning, office design, facilities management solutions, print management, and document/information destruction and recycling solutions.

“The Salus team understood exactly what we needed from a financing partner after our initial meeting and provided us with the tools and resources to make it happen,” said Howard Brown, chairman of HiTouch Business Services. “HiTouch is a fast-growing company with a bright future and we look forward to a great relationship with Salus.”

“Howard Brown is an industry veteran with extensive experience in the office supply space with a proven ability to grow companies,” said Andrew H.
