Pixel Union Empire Theme

Pixel Union is a leading design agency and software developer headquartered in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Founded in 2009, the brand established itself as a premier creator of digital products, specifically high-conversion themes and apps for the Shopify platform. Their 'Empire' theme is specifically optimized for large catalogs, drawing inspiration from major modern marketplaces.

Over the years, Pixel Union has become a staple in the e-commerce ecosystem. In 2019, the company was acquired by WeCommerce, a Canadian holding company that specializes in acquiring and growing businesses within the Shopify partner program. By 2023, WeCommerce merged with Tiny to form Tiny Ltd., which now serves as the ultimate parent company. Today, Pixel Union continues to operate as a specialized subsidiary, maintaining its Canadian roots while serving a global market of digital merchants.
