Abstract

A package for the point-of-purchase display of a product wherein the package comprises a combination of a container section, a pedestal section, and a retainer section. The container section comprises bottom and top walls with upstanding side walls. One of the side walls defines an opening which permits viewing of the product located within the container. The pedestal section overlies the bottom wall, and the product within the package is held in place by the pedestal section. The retainer section extends upwardly relative to the pedestal section, and provides a cutout portion for engagement with the product supported by the pedestal section. This retainer section holds the product against vertical shifting movement while the pedestal section is holding the product against lateral shifting movement. In the preferred form of the invention, the respective sections are all formed from one-piece blanks.
