Tupperware India Managing Director Deepak Chhabra recently announced the opening of the company's 100th retail store in Chennai, with the Southern zone accounting for 35% of sales. The stores, according to Chhabra, will be run on a franchise model and will sell the brand's most popular products. Chhabra informed that the South and West contributed 35% each to the company's revenue. The company's business strategy was to rely on direct selling for 80% of revenue, retail stores for 12%, and eight % through online mode. With the aggressive expansion plan, Chhabra said that the current 80% contribution from direct selling will drop to 65%, while revenue from retail stores will increase to 35% from the current 12%, and revenue from online will remain unchanged 10%. Regarding the impact of the Covid-19 outbreak, Chhabra informed that, like any other industry, the company experienced a surge in demand for its products due to the work from home culture. Tupperware has a large number of storage solutions as a brand, and in fact, the company's growth in 2020 was 24%, compared to 7% the previous year. Chhabra told the media the company has a world-class manufacturing facility in Dehradun, Uttarakhand, that serves the domestic market as well as shipping to more than 35 countries.
