The viral Tupperware set is a favorite on Amazon
If you were anywhere near a kitchen in the ’80s and ’90s, you would have been hard-pressed to find a house that didn’t have piles and piles of storage containers spilling out from almost every cupboard. Tupperware containers were the height of fashionable kitchen accessories back then, and while styles and tastes changed, the humble container remained. And now, Amazon is selling some favorite vintage-inspired sets.
Tupperware has stood the test of time, and as a throwback to its heyday, the company released a Heritage Collection with colors and designs that tip the hat to its universal utility through the decades.

Tupperware, everywhere
It’s hard to argue that for most people, the word “Tupperware” instantly conjures up images of plastic bowls, mismatched lids and incredible durability. But beyond that, many don’t consider where the name came from or what it means.
The first iterations of the product were developed by Earl Tupper in 1938 with pure polyethylene pellets. Experimentation and testing led Tupper to design and produce the first product in 1946, selling it in Massachusetts. To keep the lid airtight and the food fresher, he patented the “burping seal,” and in the 1950s, the well-known Tupperware Party started to take shape and become more popular among housewives. As the trend took hold in America, Tupperware expanded to Europe in 1960, making it a household name in the following decades.
In the early 2000s, the brand closed down operations in the United Kingdom and Ireland, withdrew from Israel in 2018, and closed down operations in the Netherlands and New Zealand by the end of 2022.
However, out of all the 82 countries it still operates in, Tupperware’s largest markets are Indonesia and Germany. By the end of 2021, Tupperware had a revenue of $1.6 billion and an operating income of $250 million annually.
