I know it's crazy. Probably didn't help them any that nowadays you get "free" tupperware every time you buy lunch meat.

Poor management for a number of years and a failure to keep with the customer base.

People don't cook as much and cheap Chinese knockoffs flooded the market.

To this day, most of Tupperware's sales are done by tens of thousands of individual dealers hawking bowls, baking pans, carafes and vintage tumblers in each other's living rooms, on Facebook or on other social networks. The strengths of this model recently have "begun to turn into weaknesses," Tupperware said in its bankruptcy filing, in part because it came at the cost of developing an online strategy. The company says it's planning "no current changes" to agreements it has struck with independent sales consultants. www.npr.org/2024/09/18/nx-s1-5115873/tupperware-bankruptcy#:~:text=Tupperware%2C%20the%20brand%20synonymous%20with,its%20business%20model%20and%20debt.

Now ask some mothers and wives about "tupperware" and you may get a diffrent response than the hefty, glad, and other substitute products, or using the recycled butter containers.
I know that for many years the bride would not loan out Tupperware as it would never return.
She started using the cheapest containers for that and does not worry about it.
Now she DOES have Tupperware and other branded containers in her private stash she uses..they don't leave.

Well, let me offer a tip to some of the younger generation here to help you get through life a bit easier. Collect Tupperware where you can find it. Look for the original stuff that had an image of a seal and the wording " Tupper Seal " on it . May also want to keep an eye out for some of the rarer pieces.

Grew up fishing the ponds in front of the Tupperware HQ as a kid. Security would kick us out knowing we would be back the next day.
