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.

Exports have remained consistent, even increasing in the last two years. Tupperware has done well as a result of increased demand.
