Tupperware, the model synonymous with meals storage in American properties, has filed for chapter after years of fighting its enterprise mannequin and debt.

The model wrote itself into American tradition after its founding within the Nineteen Forties, popularizing the “party” model of gross sales for its tight-sealing tumblers, bowls and cookware. It revolutionized the girl’s function within the kitchen and the U.S. economic system.

Tupperware once changed women's lives. Now it struggles to survive

To this present day, most of Tupperware’s gross sales are executed by tens of 1000’s of particular person sellers hawking bowls, baking pans, carafes and classic tumblers in one another’s dwelling rooms, on Fb or on different social networks.

The strengths of this mannequin not too long ago have “begun to turn into weaknesses,” Tupperware mentioned in its chapter submitting, partially as a result of it got here at the price of creating an internet technique. The corporate says it is planning “no current changes” to agreements it has struck with impartial gross sales consultants.

Apart from a spike in kitchenware buying throughout the pandemic, curiosity in Tupperware from both buyers or sellers has waned in recent times. And new prices, together with pricier uncooked supplies, labor and delivery, have stacked up.

“Over the last several years, the Company’s financial position has been severely impacted by the challenging macroeconomic environment,” CEO Laurie Ann Goldman mentioned in a press release. “[The bankruptcy proceeding] is meant to provide us with essential flexibility as we pursue strategic alternatives to support our transformation into a digital-first, technology-led company better positioned to serve our stakeholders.”

The corporate started warning of a possible chapter in early 2023. Its debt had ballooned to greater than $700 million. It had confronted a steep federal superb for “failing to keep up correct books and information.”

Tupperware Manufacturers then closed its solely U.S. manufacturing facility, in South Carolina, shedding 148 employees and shifting extra operations to Mexico. In October of final 12 months, it changed a number of of its leaders, together with a brand new CEO who beforehand ran the shapeware model Spanx and cosmetics stalwart Avon North America.

However any turnaround crumbled beneath the burden of debt funds, which Tupperware has missed regardless of extensions. Lenders and administration have struggled to lock in a long-term deal. The corporate has missed required regulatory disclosures. Its worth has collapsed from $93 per share on the peak in 2014 to lower than 50 cents per share on Monday.

Based proper after World Battle II, Tupperware was created by chemist Earl Tupper, who invented a versatile however hermetic double-seal, mentioned to be impressed by the paint can. However the firm’s lasting affect is credited to Brownie Sensible, who satisfied Tupper to promote his work at events, oversaw their runaway success and grew to become the primary girl on the quilt of Business Week for enabling generations of homemakers to see themselves as saleswomen.
