We have thumped it, sealed it, burped it and stored it. It can be found in homes, offices, boats and briefcases around the world. For almost 50 years, Tupperware has been making it all possible in homes around the world — providing high-quality products, rewarding careers, good times and long-lasting memories to three generations. Today, Tupperware is one of the world’s leading direct selling companies, with nearly one million independent salespeople bringing Tupperware’s premium food storage containers, serving products, microwave cookware and children’s toys to life in more than 100 countries. Making History What began as an experiment in the 1930s has become a worldwide phenomenon. Self-styled Yankee trader and inventor Earl Tupper of Berlin, New Hampshire, invented a method of purifying a by-product of the oil refining process into a material that was durable, flexible, odorless, non-toxic and lightweight. After manufacturing plastic gas mask parts during World War II, Tupper turned his attention to consumer products. He challenged himself to solve a fundamental need: how could he make it possible for American homemakers to keep food fresh and appealing in the dry environment of the new-fangled electric and gas refrigerators flooding the postwar market? Tupper created plastic products featuring a unique, virtually airtight seal ideally suited to protect food from the drying air of refrigerators. Tupper introduced his new line in 1946 through department and hardware stores, but consumers were not accustomed to high-quality plastic products and did not understand how to apply Tupperware’s unique seal. Sales languished until the late 1940s when several direct sellers with Stanley Home Products discovered the unique benefits of Tupperware® containers and recognized the value of demonstrating them at home parties. Thanks to the party plan, sales took off. One of those first direct sellers was Brownie Wise, a single mother with a genius for people and a flair for marketing. Wise was so successful demonstrating and selling Tupper’s plastics that he brought her into his company in 1951 to build the direct selling system that has made the Tupperware party as famous as the products themselves. Tupperware Today Today’s Tupperware parties provide much more than just an opportunity to purchase Tupperware® products. They are both entertaining and informative, with the flexibility to meet the unique needs of the hostess and guests. Tupperware parties provide possibilities to socialize, laugh, learn, and build friendships and memories that will last a lifetime. And with a Tupperware party starting somewhere in the world, on average, every two seconds, the fun never stops. A career with Tupperware offers the flexibility and rewards that today’s women require, with part-time to six-figure incomes within reach, plus added incentives, bonuses, reward travel and abundant occasions for peer recognition and personal encouragement. Tupperware’s products have also evolved with the changing times. In addition to such classic products as the Wonderlier® Bowl and the Shape-O® Toy, the Tupperware® product line includes revolutionary new products like Rock ‘N Serve™, a line of virtually unbreakable containers for the freezer, microwave, refrigerator and table, and OvenWorks™, plastic cookware for both conventional and microwave ovens. Other exceptional new Tupperware® products include the superior-quality, ergonomically-designed E-Series™ Knives and FridgeSmart™, a revolutionary line of storage containers designed to keep fruits and vegetables fresher longer — up to two weeks longer in some cases! The Tupperware name continues to symbolize eminently practical and beautiful design. In 1997 a survey by HFN Magazine ranked the Tupperware® brand the third most recognized name in home furnishings in the United States. The graceful form of Tupperware® products and their quality and functionality have been recognized and acquired by a number of the world’s art museums and industrial design collections, and have won design awards in the United States, Europe and Japan. Tupperware Corporation, a $1.1 billion multinational company, is one of the world’s leading direct sellers, with premium products reaching consumers in more than 100 countries. Tupperware stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "TUP". A Tupperware party started every 2.2 seconds somewhere in the world. Around the world, more than 105 million people attended a Tupperware party. Tupperware® brand products were sold in over 100 markets around the world by approximately 950,000 independent salespeople. Worldwide net sales were $1.1 billion. Visit the website for detail information want to become a sales person email angeles14@excite.com http://www.tupperware.com |
