2009—2026

Seventeen years inside China’s digital evolution.

From branded iPhone apps to WeChat commerce, clienteling and AI, each chapter reflects how China’s digital landscape changed — and how PURTION changed with it.

Chapter 012009—2012

The mobile beginning

  1. 2009

    Founded in Beijing

    PURTION was established as China’s mobile internet era began to take shape.

    A first step into branded mobile

    Following the arrival of iPhone 4 and iPad, PURTION formed its Hong Kong company and created Lancôme Genifique’s first official Chinese-language iPhone app.

    Luxury enters the app era

    iPhone app work expanded across Lancôme, Giorgio Armani Cosmetics and other brand marketing programs.

  4. 2012

    At the edge of a platform shift

    PURTION joined the Hong Kong Science Park Incu-App Programme. The same year, WeChat Official Accounts launched and opened the interfaces that would reshape China’s digital ecosystem.

Chapter 022013—2017

Becoming WeChat-native

  1. 2013

    From campaign to retained partnership

    PURTION entered the WeChat ecosystem with a CRM H5 campaign for Royal Canin, which grew into an ongoing retainer.

  2. 2014

    The Longchamp partnership begins

    Starting with a custom Le Pliage interaction on WeChat, PURTION became Longchamp’s retained partner for WeChat and Weibo content and operations.

  3. 2015

    Connecting brand and influence

    Longchamp’s China digital marketing work helped bring the brand together with Mr Bags, one of China’s defining fashion KOLs.

  4. 2016

    Commerce inside WeChat

    PURTION launched Longchamp’s H5 pop-up store for customized Le Pliage bags. A second release sold nearly 1,000 bags in three days.

  5. 2017

    The first luxury Mini Program

    Announced jointly by WeChat and Longchamp, the Longchamp online boutique became the first luxury Mini Program in the WeChat ecosystem. PURTION also began Mini Program work for Burberry.

Chapter 032018—2021

From Mini Programs to clienteling

  1. 2018

    Mini Programs become experience infrastructure

    Work expanded across Burberry, DFS, MCM and Shine With, including a 3D exhibition experience for DFS. PURTION also won first prize at the inaugural WeGeek challenge with Folli Follie and brought the solution to market.

    A multi-city delivery model

    PURTION opened Shanghai and Xi’an offices, expanded SCRM and WeCom work for Longchamp, Kering and FENDI, was named a Red Herring Top 100 Asia winner, and placed fourth at WDC Europe in Berlin with LVMH.

  3. 2020

    A WeChat ecosystem pioneer

    As WeChat Red Packet Covers launched, PURTION created the platform’s first brand case for Gucci, followed by Louis Vuitton, Longchamp and De Beers. It also built a VIC-only Mini Program for Louis Vuitton when customers could not access stores.

  4. 2021

    Clienteling beyond one-off moments

    PURTION extended Louis Vuitton’s post-show re-see into WeCom, turning a time-bound fashion moment into sustained customer engagement.

From building products to running growth

  1. 2022

    Commerce expands beyond WeChat

    During Shanghai’s extended restrictions, PURTION brought Longchamp’s My Pliage customization experience to Xiaohongshu. Work for FENG CHEN WANG became the starting point for ongoing Mini Program commerce and WeCom customer operations.

    From delivery to daily operations

    PURTION began Mini Program commerce operations for MCM and Longchamp, alongside WeCom customer operations for Sweaty Betty.
