Tupperware Brands was founded in 1946 as The Tupperware Company in Leominster, Massachusetts by Earl Tupper. The once-patented “burping seal” is a famous aspect of Tupperware, which distinguished it from competitors.
The company is perhaps best known for their home parties. Tupperware pioneered the direct marketing strategy. The Tupperware home party allowed women of the 1950’s to work and enjoy the benefits of earning an income without completely taking away the independence granted to women during the second world war, when women first began entering the labor market, all the while keeping their focus on home and family. The party plan idea builds on characteristics generally developed by being a housewife (e.g., party planning, hosting a party, sociable relations with friends and neighbors) and created an alternative choice for women who either needed or wanted to work. 
In 1958 Earl Tupper sold the company to Rexall in a $16 million deal. In 2005 the company’s name changed to Tupperware Brands Corporation to reflect diversification of the company’s product line.
In the 1950’s Tupperware parties became a symbol of suburban American life. The first home party outside of the US was held in Weybridge, England, in 1960. Tupperware spread quickly throughout Europe.
Tupperware discontinued selling in England and Ireland in 2003, stating that customers were no longer happy with the direct sales model.
Today the company sells household products and beauty under the Tupperware, Armand Dupree, Avroy Shlain, BeautiControl, Fuller, Nutrimetrics, NaturCare, and Swissgarde.
Tupperware Brands trades publicly on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol TUP, is a member of the S&P 400, is #792 in the Fortune 1000, has 13,100 employees, and had $2.3 billion in revenue in 2014.
The company announced in May 2018 that they were pulling out of Israel. While no reason was given, it is thought that the regional headquarters in the Middle East played some part in this decision. An estimated 2,000 persons will lose their jobs due to this action.

Refering to the case number PLG044423, this incident was happened in Ayer Keroh, Melaka, Malaysia on 31/10/2019. I was badly treated by both business centre in Ayer Keroh, Melaka, Malaysia and customer service headquarter in Selangor, Malaysia. As earlier conversation, customer service head Ms Jinn Lee was promised this case will handover to new hire business operation manager, but for this moment still in mid of hiring on 25 Nov 2019. By 29 Nov 2019, I got a call from Ms Jinn Lee, the investigation was completed, no feedback to customer, at the same time, customer no right to know and talk to manager in charge. How can this happened? I need feedback from headquarter in USA now.
Now explain how the business centre owner how they serve customers? They told customers, we are not suppose to come on the last day of the month, because they are busy with stock count activity. The owner told us, if we are not happy with the words, she said we can make a complaint. Further more the owner brother said, don’t be funny here, if we are not happy with the service, customers can go to other business centre, at the same time, for those exchange items, they are not earning money from customers? There are some not nice words from the centre as well.
Kindly feedback from headquarter in USA, please contact me . Thanks

I need a face to face meet and clear explain from both Tupperware Malaysia & Business Centre owner from Ayer Keroh, Malacca, Malaysia or you personally reply the email .Not the email below:
Dear Mr Ben,
We hope this email finds you well. We are writing to you to apologize on your unpleasant experience at our Business Centre in Ayer Keroh on 31 Oct 2019.
For your information, we have contacted the lady whom you have referred to as the witness of the incident. She told us that she has no issue regarding this Business Centre’s level of service and she didn’t really hear your conversation with the staff or Business Centre owner, so she was unable to give any comments regarding this matter.
Nevertheless, we have taken action to reprimand our Business Centre owner on your unpleasant experience and reminded her to uphold the appropriate customer service level towards all customers. We have also instructed the Business Centre owner to call you and apologize to you personally and we believed that you have received her apologize phone call.
We appreciate your feedback to us on this issue and thank you for your continuous support.
Many thanks and regards,

To all the Tupperware customer,
Can you see that, how poor the service from Tupperware headquarter, no one willing to reply me?
I have some OLD pcs. of tupperware ….some from the 1950’s anyone interested? still in good condition….
even older…when it was first called Tupper ….Ware…two words.
Really frustrated trying to get a response from my tupperware dealer in Prescott, Az. Could you help with that or give me the corporate phone number. I am really exasperated trying to find the tupperware home office phone number to get some service. Any help would be appreciated.

Tupperware NOT what it once was. Second lid to break. Now they are asking for $5.75 to replace a lid? I will trash both the lid/bowl and find another product. Sorry.
I have a piece of Tupperware that has a cracked lid. The rep says I can replace it if Ipay 5 d ollars shipping. I am having difficulty finding a sales person in my area. I live in Leesburg Fl. 34748. Please locate a rep for me. Phone no. 352 787 XXXXX. Please .live up to your sales pitches. We
I have several tupperware containers but have lost the lids! I need 2 7/8″ lids. Where can I find them?
I ordered Tupperware in the spring and gave the girl the order form with my credit card number. I have not received my Tupperware order. I contacted the girl and she said she called to look into this but she said no one will call her back. If I can’t get my order can I at least get a refund.
Way to go ! My mother( Judy Thomas) sold Tupperware for years starting in the 70’s and going thought the 90’s .
She went pretty high up with her team thought the years , all the trips and meeting that we as a family would go to in Florida . The kids would get to go play at the parks and mother and dad did the Tupperware thing all day .
My mother retired in the late 90’s . We just lost her this month sad to say.
So as I was cleaning out all the drawers of old Tupperware memories ,and photos of all the cars & conventions over the years , I came across a box of 25 oval bronze colored coins with the words ” Tupperware Bonds of Friendship”. I’m not sure what they are must of meant something.
My Mother loved Tupperware in those days . I remember her driving miles to replace a Damaged piece of tupperware and not regretting it , she would say it will pay off some day.
I was glad to hear that there is still some of the tupperware family that cares.
Keep up the Good work!
To Whom it May Concern:
I’ve been buying Tupperware since mid 70’s, good buy, sturdy, above all, “GUARANTEED FOR LIFE”. If at ANY TIME, product is DAMAGED, as “CHEWED by pet, MICE, Melted on stove, or the item DEFECTIVE, Tupperware will REPLACE for FREE, just return the item in question , it will be replaced at NO CHARGE.
WELL not true any more, Tupperware is re-niggling on they’re PROMISE, COMPANY REPUTATION. Recently I have tried to replace an item, a defective lid(25410-3), cracked on the rim….standard size for storage and cereal bowl(bought in the last couple of years).
My rep inquired on this item, her words, LID IS OBSOLETE, bowls/containers are still manufacturer but not the lid …but give you a $2 CREDIT!
SERIOUSLY!? Containers are NO GOOD without the lid!
So if thats the case, please reimburse me for ALL MY TUPPERWARE, its no better then GLAD and whatever storage container products out there, cheaper since it ALL has to be replaced at cost sooner or later!
SERIOUSLY DISAPPOINTED!
Thank You
long time Tupperware Advocate turned SOUR!
Just because that seal is obsolete, does not mean that your rep should automatically say they can’t get it for you. Have your rep call Customer Care and see if there is another seal available that will fit or have them talk to their TupperTeam to see if someone has one on hand. I have a lady on my TupperTeam that has boxes and boxes full of seals (lids) if you would like me to talk to her and see if she has one. I won’t give up til I have the product for you. That is my guarantee! E-mail me at nate******@gmail.com and let me see if I can help you.
