JHS Sales & Service: Serving Those Who Serve

For over 17 years, JHS Sales & Service has been a trusted military brokerage firm, proudly working with all branches of the U.S. military to deliver prestige cosmetics to service members and their families. Founded by Elizabeth Jane Persson, a passionate advocate for the military community, the company has built its success on strong relationships, personalized service and a deep respect for those in uniform.

Elizabeth’s connection to the military began decades ago, inspired by her husband, a retired major. That personal tie evolved into a professional mission: to bring high-quality products to military bases across the country. “The military are the best customers in the world,” she shares. “Just the smallest thing can change someone’s day.”

JHS Sales & Service is more than a retailer—it’s a relationship-driven business that understands the unique needs of its exclusive customer base. But like many small businesses, the COVID-19 pandemic posed serious challenges. With shipping halted and revenue at risk, Elizabeth turned to Comerica Bank for help. Within 24 hours, Comerica secured a small business loan that kept the company afloat.

“Comerica stepped in to save my company,” Elizabeth says. “I would have lost it.” Today, her financial team continues to rely on Comerica’s fast, reliable service for payroll, deposits and day-to-day operations.

With a legacy of service and a commitment to excellence, JHS Sales & Service stands as a shining example of how veteran-connected businesses enrich our communities—and how Comerica is proud to support them every step of the way.
