Tupperware May Go Out Of Business

(Orlando, FL) -- Famous food storage company Tupperware says it's struggling and has hired advisers to help turn things around. The company announced last week it's experiencing financial problems, and there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue. Earl Tupper started the company in 1946 in Massachusetts, and five years later, he moved it to Kissimmee. Over the years Tupperware's colorful plastic food containers could be found in kitchens around the country. The company, though, says net sales were down almost 20 percent last year.
