TikTok Shop is exploding – but can your fulfilment keep up? 🚀 “As a channel, TikTok Shop is less profitable compared to other e-com channels, although it also acts as general marketing investment for the brand, supporting other channels. Using one 3PL provider often gives brands a better visibility of the P&L and makes it possible to avoid additional costs related to duplicate warehousing and stock management. For omnichannel brands, choosing one fulfilment partner is usually the best option. Silta team highly recommends ILG.” – Päivi Korvela, Founder of TikTok Shop Partner Agency Silta and Co-Founder of Kanzen Studios
