Logistical challenges can overwhelm TikTok sellers as their popularity grows, especially during viral trends. With over 100 years of logistics expertise, Buske Logistics specializes in helping sellers scale efficiently while meeting the demands of TikTok's fast-paced ecosystem. This post will explore how partnering with a third-party logistics provider (3PL) like Buske can transform TikTok order fulfillment into a competitive advantage.
TikTok Shop quickly became a significant e-commerce space. It’s been estimated that 33% of American users have purchased through the platform in less than a year since it was launched in the U.S. market.
It’s also worth noting that, unlike other e-commerce platforms, TikTok Shop is primarily a “social shopping” site. TikTok Shop is a fast-moving platform with viral online trends likely affecting customers’ buying decisions. It means TikTok shoppers expect lightning-fast service, too.
Ultimately, fast and error-free order fulfillment can make or break a seller’s reputation and success on the platform. That’s why having a reliable 3PL (third-party logistics) partner makes all the difference.
Using 3PL for TikTok Shop allows stores to focus on creating engaging content and driving sales. Sellers can leave the complexities of order fulfillment to a company equipped with the expertise, advanced technology, and flexible solutions for their logistics needs.
While managing inventory and shipping in-house can work at the start of a seller’s TikTok Shop venture, growing stores may later face:
Example: A Buske client recently experienced a 300% spike in orders when their TikTok campaign went viral. By leveraging our scalable warehousing and advanced fulfillment systems, they shipped 99% of their orders within 24 hours, maintaining a 5-star customer rating.
This is where a 3PL comes in—not just for large operations but also for small sellers. An expert 3PL like Buske Logistics offers scalable solutions tailored to any business size, from professional warehousing to order fulfillment and shipping services.
Integration is the first—and most important—step when working with a 3PL for order fulfillment. Without 3PL integration into a TikTok shop, automated order processing, inventory management, and fulfillment would be impossible.
Sellers searching for a service provider for 3PL TikTok Shop fulfillment should keep this in mind. By syncing a TikTok shop directly with a 3PL system, order fulfillment processes would be carried out smoothly and quickly while minimizing errors.
One of the features of Buske’s e-commerce solutions is the seamless integration of our clients’ platforms with our warehousing and fulfillment systems. This service translates to:
Here are the basic steps on how to integrate 3PL in a TikTok Shop:
Step 1: Find a provider with the right technology for integration: Partner with a 3PL like Buske that supports seamless API connections to sync TikTok Shop operations with fulfillment systems.
Step 2: Sync inventory data: The technology to integrate TikTok Shop with a 3PL provider’s systems allows sellers to sync their inventory data easily. This makes real-time inventory updates possible to maintain accurate stock levels.
Step 3: Automate order fulfillment processes: Orders flow directly from TikTok to the 3PL provider’s system for efficient picking, packing, shipping, and product returns. Customers will receive real-time updates, which helps improve customer satisfaction.
Sellers should use professional warehousing solutions with a third-party logistics set-up for TikTok. Organized warehousing ensures inventory is stored safely and remains accessible during periods of high demand.
When partnering with Buske, TikTok sellers will not only have a state-of-the-art facility to store their products, but they will also benefit from advanced warehouse management systems for smooth order fulfillment at all times.
Using Buske’s warehousing solutions allows TikTok sellers to use and pay for just the space they need. Because our facilities are designed to efficiently fulfill orders, inventory can move quickly from storage to shipment, even during peak demand periods.
Buske's warehouses are strategically located near major transportation hubs, ensuring faster customer delivery. Our advanced systems also allow real-time inventory tracking, helping sellers monitor stock levels, avoid overselling, and efficiently plan restocks.
For TikTok sellers, fast and accurate order processing is vital to maintaining a positive reputation and building a loyal customer base. Partnering with a 3PL like Buske ensures sellers can meet demand without sacrificing quality or efficiency.
This is another reason seamless integration with online stores is a key element of setting up 3PL order fulfillment in TikTok.
When a TikTok order is placed, the data is sent directly to the 3PL’s fulfillment system, where the order is processed automatically. The 3PL TikTok fulfillment partner will handle everything from picking the right product in the warehouse to packing it carefully and shipping it quickly.
With seamless integration and streamlined order fulfillment in place, TikTok sellers can enjoy these benefits:
A Bazaarvoice survey in 2022 revealed that over 71% of TikTok shoppers made a purchase after seeing something they liked on their feed. This could suggest that TikTok customers love creativity and personalization and are more likely to buy appealing items.
Handing the logistics operations to a third-party provider doesn’t mean TikTok sellers cannot provide a personalized shopping experience. This is where value-added logistics can help a TikTok store stand out and expand its customer base.
