Local online shoe retailer StyleTread is remaining tight-lipped about its clash with Westfield, after the start-up\u2019s kiosk was closed at Parramatta following a conflict with existing tenants.<\/p>\n
<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Based in Sydney, StyleTread was founded in 2010 by Mark Rowland and Bjorn Behrendt, who used incubation capital from Lakestar, an institutional fund based in Zurich.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In May last year, the Nine Entertainment Company invested around $4 million in StyleTread, with the business reportedly valued at $20 million.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
