In 1946, Mr. Earl Tupper with his acumen, skill and innovative thinking, started a never-to-end revolution with Tupperware. Tupperware products created a need and space for practical and durable products. The brand made its debut about 75 years ago, it is still revolutionising lives across the world.
Brownie Wise, a remarkable American salesperson, was a pioneer of this revolution. She identified the need for product demos and introduced a party plan system, which ultimately created entrepreneurial opportunities for women. This system went on to break all records and made Tupperware a leading homeware brand across the globe.
Tupperware is now sold in almost 100 countries. In almost seven decades, the products have become more diverse, environmentally-responsible and durable.
