Tupperware catalogue - monthly specials 2019 + BLACK FRIDAY

Tupperware is a global enterprise that sells, you guessed it, tupperware. Tupperware was developed by Earl Tupper in the 1940’s. He was experimenting with a by product of the oil refining process. He came up with the concept of creating a storage container, but the product didn’t really take off until the single mother Brownie Wise got involved in the 1950’s. People didn’t understand the idea at first. Now you probably won’t find a house with at least some semblance of Tupperware in the kitchen cupboard.

Tupperware can be used to store fresh food, freeze raw or cooked food, cook food in a microwave oven or serve food at parties. The reusable nature of Tupperware means the plastics footprint on the environment is lessened. You don’t need to use cling wrap or disposable containers if you have Tupperware. The lid also seals tightly to create an air locked storage container, keeping anything you store in it fresher for longer, meaning you waste less food.

The Tupperware company also engages in corporate citizenship by giving back to the community. There is a volunteer program in which volunteers also receive leadership, teambuilding and other skills development. In South Africa Tupperware is actively involved in Boys and Girls Clubs of South Africa. This initiative offers after school programs that are based around the interests and needs of the members. The main focus of these programs is to improve the academic success of their members, ensure they live a healthy lifestyle and promote good character and citizenship qualities while building self-esteem and self worth. They hope to keep these children off the streets and away from drug, gang related activities and other deviant behaviour that plague the children of our country today.
