Everyone needs Tupperware.....

This company's business model is even more successful outside the U.S. than inside. (Indeed, they screwed things up in the US by trying to sell products through retail and demoralizing its sales force. This should be improving with the job situation and flexibility of working hours.)
The business is not just poppable plastic containers since it has successfully expanded its model to market beauty products.
As an aside, and with no indication that this might be a possibility, it should be noted that Berkshire Hathaway has a similar subsidiary in the beauty product area so a takeover is not illogical.

seriously, when's the last time you went to a tupperware party?

much of its sales are overseas

I sell tupperware, Discovery toys, and Avon.
I like to see where they are going to be as a growing companies. I like to see each company reach the outperformance of others in stock.

High growth in emerging markets. High profitability and management effectiveness

It has a brilliant business model for tapping into the emerging markets.

CASHFLOW

Tupperware has been very good in adapting its products to the needs of different countries and cultures. The management has shown it is very aware of cultural differences and this has shown in their sales in many developing markets. This I think bodes well for expanding sales as more people in developing countries are earning enough money to buy them. My favorite story about them is making a flat round Tupperware product for naan bread in India which just shows how much they are adapting to India's needs.

This account tracks the less exciting stocks from my watch list - companies that are easy to understand with clean balance sheets and good track records in relatively straight-forward industries.

Late to the game but have loved the team for a long time. "Chicks with plastics" is a winning formula

strong presence in emerging markets; proven business model and focused management; strong cash flow generation; moderate valuation

Developing countries offer interesting prospects

This is the kind of company I love. A brand so strong that across many English speaking countries plastic containers are referred to as Tupperware, most people don't know that it's an actual company. Companies like this go largely ignored because the excitement factor is zero but it has an economic moat to die for.

I'm putting TUP on my watchlist. I see very strong incentives to be bullish on these guys;

1: They're a cash machine growing huge FCF as far as I can tell.
2: They have an attractive, easy to understand business model.
3: They'll bring in a huge number of new recruits via the women in the developing markets.
4: They're paying down debt, buying back stock and yielding an attractive, easily maintainable dividend.
5: They're growing FAST. I see a company starting to really hit their stride.
6: After reading a couple of interviews with CEO Rick Goings I've taken a liking to the guy.

In conclusion this is probably not going to be a NFLX-kind-of-ten-bagger, but it is a very solid core stock that is not too set in its ways to grow at doubledigit rates in the foreseeable future.

Fool on - Nicklas.

Exposure to emerging markets should do well, add to that the recovery in US should also help profits, margins and growth would be impacted due to exposure to Europe which I think will be in a dog house for a number of years. In the end i expect the company to outperform S&P500
