Benefits with HiTen by your side..
We provide HiTen independent distributors with the latest, cutting-edge technology to design and order-manage steel shed packages with their preferred suppliers.
HiTen’s revenues are derived by a transaction fee charged to all participating suppliers, much like Amazon or eBay. We do not mark up the material costs, engineering, or software fees, providing shed businesses and builders with the best opportunity to make sales.
