Shopping on line can be easy, simple and save you lots of money. It can also take a lot of your time, frustrate you, and result in unwanted purchases. Now the same can be said for regular high street shopping, but with the vast opportunity presented by the Internet it will pay you to spend a few minutes reading this and understanding how to better optimize your Tupperware shopping experience:

1. Compare - without doubt the biggest advantage that the Tupperware offers shoppers today is the ability to compare thousands of Tupperware at a time. This is a great thing, but not necessarily all the time! Too much can be daunting at times so take advantage of the great comparison sites and where possible let them do the hard work for you.

2. Research - if it has been said it will be on the internet. Ignorance is no longer a justifiable reason for buying the wrong thing. Take the time to research in detail everything that you could possible want to know about

3. Testimonials - don't know anybody that has bought a Tupperware? Wrong! If the Tupperware is good the internet will let you know. Use the Internet as a friend and get testimonials before you buy.

4. Questions - Got a question about Tupperware then search the Forums, FAQ's, Blogs etc. Don't be afraid to ask .....

5. Reputation - Never heard of the company selling Tupperware? Don't worry, no reason why you should know every company in the world, but you know someone that does! Use the internet to find out what people are saying about Tupperware and build up a picture of their reputation for sales, returns, customer service, delivery etc.

6. Returns - still worried that even after all of the above your Tupperware wont be what you want? Check out the returns policy. There is so much competition now that someone, somewhere is bound to offer the terms that you are comfortable with.

7. Feedback - happy with your Tupperware then let people know, after all you are depending on others people input in your buying decision, so why not give a little back.

8. Security - check for the yellow padlock on the Tupperware site before you buy, and the s after http:/ /i.e. https:// = a secure site

9. Contact - got a question about Tupperware, or want to leave a comment then check out the sites contact page. Reputable companies have them and respond.

10. Payment - ready to pay for your Tupperware, then use your credit card or PayPal! Be aware of companies that don't accept them, there may be genuine reasons but given the huge amount of choice you have when buying online there is no reason at all not to buy via credit card or PayPal.



Tupperware is the brand name of a home products line that includes preparation, storage, and serving products for the kitchen and home. The brand debuted in 1946. Products are developed, manufactured, and internationally distributed by its parent company Tupperware Brands Corporation and marketed by means of direct sales through an independent sales force of approximately 1.9 million consultants. Tupperware is a wholly owned subsidiary of Tupperware Brands Corporation.

Company history Tupperware was developed in 1945 by Earl Tupper (1907-1983) in the USA. He developed plastic containers used in households to contain food and keep it airtight. The formerly patented "burping seal" is a famous aspect of Tupperware, which distinguished it from competitors.

Tupperware pioneered the direct marketing strategy made famous by the party plan. Brownie Wise (1913-1992), a former sales representative of Stanley Home Products, developed the strategy. During the early 1950s, Tupperware's sales and popularity exploded, thanks in large part to Wise's influence among women who sold Tupperware, and some of the famous "jubilees" celebrating the success of Tupperware ladies at lavish and outlandishly themed parties. Tupperware was known, at a time when women came back from working during World War II only to be told to "go back to the kitchen", as a method of empowering women, and giving them a toehold in the post-war business world. The tradition of Tupperware's "Jubilee" style events continues to this day, with rallies being held in major cities to recognize and reward top-selling demonstrators, managers and distributorships.

In 1958, Earl Tupper fired Brownie Wise over general difference of opinion in the Tupperware business operation. It is believed that Tupper objected to the expenses incurred by the jubilee and other similar celebrations of Tupperware.

Tupperware spread to Europe in 1960 when Mila Pond hosted a Tupperware party in Weybridge, England, and subsequently round the world. In 2003, Tupperware closed down operations in the UK, but relaunched in 2005.

Tupperware is now sold in almost 100 countries in the world. The top five consumers of Tupperware are:
  • Germany
  • USA
  • Mexico
  • France
  • Australia


    • Tupperware Parties Tupperware is still sold mostly through a party plan, with rewards for hosts. A Tupperware party is run by a Tupperware consultant for a host who invites friends and neighbors into their home to see the product line. Tupperware hosts are rewarded with free products based on the level of sales made at their party. Parties also take place in workplaces and sometimes in other settings.

    In most countries, Tupperware's sales force is organized in a multi-level marketing structure with salespeople at the bottom, managers over them, and distributors at the top level. However, Tupperware differs significantly from most multi-level marketing companies in that high-level managers must be invited by the company before becoming a distributor, as distributorship opportunities are limited and controlled by the company. Most distributorships originally were run by married couples.

    In recent years, Tupperware in North America has been moving to a new business model which includes more emphasis on direct marketing channels and reduced its dependency on authorized distributorships. This transition included such strategies as selling through Target (store) stores in the US, and Superstores in Canada, with disappointing results. Although this marketing channel was discontinued in 2003, it had a significant negative affect on the core sales channel's ability to recruit and host parties.

    In many countries, Tupperware products come with a lifetime guarantee. The company is best known for its plastic bowls and storage containers, however in recent years has branched out into stainless steel cookware, fine cutlery, chef's knives and other kitchen gadgets. After experiencing a slump in sales and public image in the mid-1990s, the company created several new product lines to attract a younger market.

    In South East Asia and recently in the US as well, there are Tupperware kiosks in shopping malls.

    Tupperware and the internet Tupperware has been resistant to using the internet, and the company's national websites remain basic and with very little interactivity.

    With the exception of the the official My.Tupperware webpages in the US and Canada, Tupperware consultants are not permitted to promote their Tupperware business online, nor may they use any third party website such as eBay or amazon to sell Tupperware products. They may also not undertake any advertising or publicity using the Tupperware name without the specific permission of the corporation, which sees such advertising as trademark infringement. In practice, these policies primarily limit consultants to word of mouth advertising through the party plan.

    In the USA, a consultant's My.Tupperware webpage includes a Banner Ad service as a means of passive advertisement.

    Product lines Tupperware's product ranges are often marketed under different names in countries, and the product ranges and colors themselves differ between markets. Some of Tupperware's most popular lines include:



    In popular culture







    "Chain of Confidence" program On May 9, 2007 Tupperware announced Brooke Shields as the celebrity spokesperson for Tupperware’s "Chain of Confidence" campaign in the USA. The campaign invites women to celebrate the strong bonds of female friendships and the self-confidence derived from those relationships.

    ChainOfConfidence.com serves as an online community where women can share their confidence stories with one another and join an online discussion about the importance of female friendships and confidence.

    As part of Chain of Confidence, Tupperware is donating over one million dollars to the Boys & Girls Clubs of America to sponsor SMART Girls—a program dedicated to promoting confidence in young girls ages 8-17.
