TikTok Shop and social enterprise Hapinoy recently rolled out a community training session under Unlad Lokal, a program designed to help sari-sari store owners—especially women—tap into digital selling opportunities through TikTok’s e-commerce platform.
The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) and ByteDance Philippines Inc., the operator of TikTok, have joined forces to empower Filipino micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) through digital innovation and online selling strategies.
The company’s use of “shoppertainment” techniques, strategic campaigns, and affiliate marketing has solidified its place as a leader in digital commerce, making its products more accessible to younger, tech-savvy consumers.
