LOS ANGELES, Jan. 19, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nova LifeStyle, Inc. (NASDAQ:NVFY), a U.S. based fast-growing, innovative designer, manufacturer and distributor of modern LifeStyle furniture, today announced the Company has partnered with www.weilai178.com, an online market site serving more than 2 million customers, which is based on Blockchain payments and Blockchain related technology.
The Company intends to purchase weilai178's membership data system which it will incorporate into its training center platform. This is expected to further drive growth of Nova LifeStyle's e-commerce strategy for the Company’s furniture lines.
This partnership will allow Nova LifeStyle to benefit from an established digital market site, provide products and customer service through e-commerce as well as business training, investing and developing new technologies for the Blockchain industry.
Due to the inherently decentralized nature, Blockchain technology is particularly effective at handling distributed transactions among a large number of parties. Blockchain technology helps to substantially reduce fraud and increase trust with increased security as each transaction is uniquely encoded via cryptography and this encoding is validated by other parties of the Blockchain.
Tawny Lam, President and Interim CEO of Nova LifeStyle stated, “Nova LifeStyle is pleased to be able to initiate sales and services efforts to millions of existing Blockchain customers, which provides a natural evolution of our e-commerce strategy. This partnership will substantially help Nova to gain additional revenue growth while concurrently reducing the transaction costs. This business arrangement marks an important milestone in Nova's corporate history and our successful transition into a company utilizing Blockchain-based technology."
