TIKTOK SHOP
The newest e-commerce solution from the leading destination for short-form mobile videos, TikTok, has now reached Malaysian shores.
In a time where e-commerce is booming, TikTok Shop is a part of TikTok’s plans to support local
businesses and provide a platform that brings together online sellers, buyers and creators under one
roof.
This will benefit particularly Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) who have yet to set up a
physical, brick-and-mortar store to sell their products due to the high initial investment costs.
MORE MALAYSIA SHOPPING ONLINE
“In the third quarter of 2021, Malaysia recorded a total of RM279 billion of e-commerce income, a
jump of 17.1% from the same quarter the year before.
This shows that more Malaysians are shopping online, and we want to tap into this market to make it more convenient for our creators to reach their buyers, and vice versa.
We hope that TikTok Shop will help shape the e-commerce space in Malaysia and encourage more local businesses to maximise the opportunities to engage with their customers and drive business results on TikTok Shop,”
