AS THE FATHER OF TWO TEENAGE DAUGHTERS, I can tell you first-hand that when I think of the ubiquitous social media app TikTok, logistics is far from top of mind. But that may be changing. The reason? Well, a recent report published by Axios came across my desk with the following headline: "TikTok chases Amazon with plans for U.S. fulfillment centers." To be honest, that was not a headline I was expecting to see, especially given the way that TikTok is utilized in our home. But a close read of the Axios report raises some interesting points, noting that its plans to build U.S.-based fulfillment centers "could directly challenge Amazon." The report also highlighted several logistics-related job openings posted by TikTok on LinkedIn for positions such as a logistics solutions manager for a global fulfillment center as well as a fulfillment logistics manager. |
