Tupperware is an American company that manufactures and internationally distributes preparation, storage, and serving containers for the Kitchen and home. It was founded in 1942 by Earl Tupper, who developed his first bell-shaped container and introduced the products to the public in 1946.
As of 2007, it was sold by approximately 1.9 million direct salespeople on contract.[3] In 2013, the top marketplace for Tupperware was Indonesia, topping Germany. Indonesia's sales in 2013 were more than $200 million.[4]
In September 2024, when its parent company filed for bankruptcy,[5] it was a wholly owned subsidiary of Tupperware Brands Corporation (TBC). Two months later, it was announced that a company formed by a group of TBC secured lenders, Party Products LLC, had completed the purchase of the brand, as well as certain related operations.[6]
