Argus is excited to announce the launch of a new brand for Desert Silicon. Through a careful evaluation of the marketplace and interviews with leadership, Argus developed a brand platform and customer-centric, e-commerce website for pioneer, Desert Silicon, which communicates the unique benefits of the products, while also making them easy to order.
