TikTok Shop Is Winning Over Major Brands: Top Brands to Watch

Written by The Charm Team | May 7, 2026 9:42:24 PM

TikTok Shop is gaining credibility with major brands as its social commerce share and sales volume grow quickly. Here's what you need to know:

  • TikTok Shop now represents about 20% of all social commerce sales.

  • TikTok Shop generated $500 million in sales from Black Friday to Cyber Monday last year, showing strong performance during a major retail shopping period.

  • Major brands, including Samsung, Disney, Sally Beauty, and Ulta, have joined TikTok Shop, and TikTok Shop sales from big-name brands (those with at least $30M in annual revenue) rose 97% YoY.  Total transaction volume increased nearly 80% YoY.

  • Large brands will have an edge over the many founder-led brands on the platform when it comes to price competition. These large brands may also see more of a halo effect as visibility from TikTok will drive sales across other channels.

  • TikTok Shop sales are projected to surpass $20 billion in 2026 and exceed $30 billion in 2028, making the platform increasingly important for brands evaluating customer acquisition, discovery, and channel growth.
