Will Live Shopping On TikTok, Amazon And YouTube Take Off In The U.S.?

Livestream shopping took China by storm during the pandemic, growing into an estimated $423 billion market in 2022.

The trend has caught on more slowly in the U.S., but now Amazon, TikTok, YouTube and Shopify are making big investments in hopes it takes off. CNBC goes behind the scenes with creators like Myriam Sandler to find out what it’s like to sell via livestream, and what it’ll take for the emerging model to become a mainstream way that U.S. consumers shop.
