ALLEN, Texas, Nov. 14, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — LiveArea, a leading global commerce services provider and business unit of PFSweb (NASDAQ: PFSW), completed the redesign and launch of three online flagship stores in the Kendo Brands beauty portfolio: Marc Jacobs Beauty, Ole Henriksen, and Kat Von D Beauty.
