Nashville-based business technology and office equipment supplier RJ Young announced Monday its acquisition of Virginia peer Ethos Technologies.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed in a release.
Previously known as Blue Ridge Copier and headquartered in Roanoke, Ethos Technologies bills itself as among the largest office technology and IT solutions providers based in Southwest Virginia.
