Abstract

The tray has an outer rectangular panel that has two opposing end walls and two side walls. A plurality of rows of the cells extend from one end panel to the other, intermediate the side panels. Gaps are formed in the outer panel adjacent some of the cells to expose the can labels or UPC codes. The outer panel has a flat surface so advertising may be placed on the outer panel.
