Brand landing pages have become a very popular way for retailers to:
Showcase products from a certain brand on one dedicated page of the web or mobile site.
Help the you find disparate products from that brand from a dedicated landing page without the shopper having to individually refine or search for items from that brand.
Meet marketing, sales, or other special arrangements retailers may have made with certain brands.
Note: Renderers that would support a brand landing page are not available for the iPad in this release.
