About Us
When Detroit engineering duo Frank Cotter and G. Howlett Davis created the world's first insulated tumbler in 1946, they knew they had something magical. What they didn't have was a name for this virtually indestructible drinking vessel that kept cold drinks colder and hot drinks hotter. So they simply combined the last three letters of their last names and called it Tervis®.
What started out as a single-size tumbler that was available with only a few different designs is now a full line of styles available with an ever-growing choice of original designs, collegiate emblems, custom emblems and more. Today's Tervis Tumblers are offered in different colors and in metallic and glitter varieties. In true American fashion, you can count on Tervis drinkware to complement any style and every discriminating taste.
Tervis, still a privately owned company, has survived the test of time. By constantly refining and improving on the original idea, the quality and durability of Tervis products will continue to be smartly ahead of the times! |
Today, Tervis Tumbler Company employs more than 205 people in its North Venice manufacturing facility in Florida. Tervis is widely available in department and specialty stores throughout the nation. In addition to this website, Tervis Tumblers can be purchased in any of its four Florida Factory Stores.
