The Tupperware company was founded in 1946 by Earl Tupper in the United states. The first manufacturing plant in Canada was founded in 1963 in Cowansville Québec. A second plant was later created in Morden Manitoba in 1979. Both plants would serve the east and west of Canada respectively. On February 6, 1985 the entire production was transferred to the Morden factory and the Cowansville one was shut down. Tupperware products were extremely popular in Canadian households because of direct selling methods. Mrs. Brownie Wise first initiated Tupperware “parties” and that idea led to the Tupperware products becoming an icon in the consumer industry throughout North America and the world in the 20th century. La compagnie Tupperware a été fondée en 1946 par Earl Tupper aux États-Unis. La première filiale fut établie au Canada, à Cowansville, au Québec en 1963. La deuxième usine fut établie à Morden au Manitoba en 1979. L'usine québécoise desservait l'est du Canada et la nouvelle, l'ouest du Canada. Le 6 février 1985 la production est transférée à l'usine de Morden, au Manitoba. Les produits Tupperware furent très populaires dans les foyers canadiens. La technique de vente était la vente directe, méthode initiée par Mme Brownie Wise. Les représentantes organisaient des ``party`` Tupperware. Les articles Tupperware sont devenus une icône de la société de consommation de la deuxième moitié du 20e siècle en Amérique du Nord et ailleurs dans le monde.

Earl Tupper was inspired to create the Tupper Seal by imitating paint cans but used a burp system in order to create a partial vacuum environment that sealed his lids tight.
