Earl Tupper

Talk about the end of an era, Tupperware won't be American made anymore.

The brand was launched in 1946 by a guy named Earl Tupper.

That's where the name comes from.

They announced in June they'd be closing their last U.S. factory and laying off 148 workers.

The person who built the Tupperware party system was the first woman ever on the cover of Businessweek in 1954.

She was fired by Earl Tupper.

Fuck that guy.

In 1958, Earl Tupper, in 1958, wrote her out of the company's history right before he sold it for millions.

Earl Tupper.

Why I got it.

Oh, my God.

which is such a cute name.

Her name was Brownie Wise.

She was the marketing genius behind Tupperware, while Earl Tupper invented the plastic.

It was Wise who realized the party planning was the ultimate sales vehicle, turning Tupperware into a household name.
