Fortis Solutions Group LLC, a portfolio company of Main Post Partners, recently announced its acquisition of Total Label. Founded in 2004 by Janet Farris and Chris Farris with locations in Whitefish, Mont., and Memphis Tenn., Total Label provides complex pressure-sensitive, extended content, and booklet labels utilizing flexographic, letterpress, digital, and hybrid printing technologies. Total primarily serves the agriculture, health and beauty, nutraceutical, home goods, and food/beverage end markets.

"Total Label is known throughout the industry for its highly engineered, value-added products with quick turnaround times," said John O. Wynne, Jr., Fortis president and CEO. "The acquisition of Total will further augment our product portfolio while expanding our geographic reach to the Pacific Northwest. I'm looking forward to working alongside Janet Farris and Chris Farris and the Total team to continue their growth trajectory."

"As a family-owned business we have always been very purposeful in how we have built the culture and strategy of Total Label," said Janet Farris. "A partnership with Fortis allows us to continue to grow, provide excellent products, and foster a positive environment for our employees."

"Speed. Quality. Innovation. That is the motto we've employed at Total Label over the past 15 years, and it was the same way when we helped our father run his business," said Chris Farris. "We chose to combine forces with Fortis because they will allow us to continue to innovate for our customers well into the future."
