Tips for TikTok Shop Sellers: Set Up Your Seller Own Fleet (SOF)

Table of Contents

Hey, TikTok Shop Sellers!

Are you thinking of handling deliveries on your own? Maybe your products need special care, or you’re just looking to level up your delivery experience. Either way, it’s time to talk about Seller Own Fleet (SOF), a game-changer for TikTok sellers who want more control over how their parcels reach customers.

Let’s walk you through what SOF is, why it matters, and how to set it up like a pro!

What is Seller Own Fleet (SOF)?

Seller Own Fleet (SOF) is the delivery option that allows TikTok Shop sellers to use their own logistics team or preferred courier partners, instead of relying solely on TikTok’s integrated courier services. This means you manage how, when, and who delivers your products.

But here’s the catch. TikTok only allows SOF for certain product types that require special handling, such as:

  • Items that require installation (e.g., air conditioners, ceiling fans)
  • Temperature-sensitive goods (e.g., chocolate, flowers, frozen food)
  • Dangerous goods (e.g., batteries, aerosols, lighters)
  • Fragile items (e.g., glassware, ceramics)
  • Bulky or heavy goods (e.g., furniture, large appliances)
Note: You must provide valid reasons when applying to use SOF for these products.

Why Use SOF for Your TikTok Shop?

Here’s why many sellers choose to set up their delivery system:
