LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 6, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CafePress Inc. (Nasdaq:PRSS), The World's Customization Engine®, today reported financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2013.
"Demand for customized products was strong across our e-commerce properties as revenue grew 16% over last year," said Chief Executive Officer Bob Marino.

We believe that we will exit the year with a more efficient business and an improved cost structure."
