Tervis


One store on pricey Fifth Avenue South sells nothing but insulated plastic cups and lids.
Seriously.

How are they still in business?

Good grief. Not exactly very green is it.

It is supposed to be green. Use these insulated cups instead of styrofoam or cardboard throw-away cups.

I don't like plastic cups, everything is mostly glass, wood and steel in our home when it comes to kitchen gadgets and utensils. But I have to say I like stores that go all out and give you lots of options :)

That's more than a little odd Jack, are they expensive plastic cups :)

That's quite a niche market.

I'm surprised there is such a market for these that would cover the rent in that area, Jack! What do I know? ;-))

I suppose for keeping things cool rather than hot. I guess you need them more there than here. Stores here sell insulated coffee mugs to keep things hot!

Seems a little redundant to me!

Tervis is based in Sarasota. The company was doing quite well --- and then a few years ago really took off when it successfully contracted for sports licensing (e.g.: NFL, MLB, college teams). It's amazing. I have a few Tervis tumblers (what Floridian doesn't?) and I must say: (1) they keep drinks really cold or hot and (2) they're virtually indestructible.
