ABSTRACT:
A one piece pusher urges merchandise items towards a front end of a pegboard mounted hook in a merchandise display system. The hook is used for slidably suspending associated merchandise items. The hook includes a back end which can be mounted in a pegboard and a front end having a generally upwardly turned tip for preventing the merchandise items from sliding off the hook. The pusher includes a mounting portion by which the pusher is mounted on the back end of the hook and an elongated portion extending forwardly from the mounting portion. The elongated portion includes a first aperture, a second aperture and a first slit extending between the first and second apertures. The first slit allows the elongated portion of the pusher to be mounted on the hook so that the first and second apertures surround the hook at spaced locations. The pusher further includes a front face of the elongated portion. The front face contacts a rearmost one of the merchandise items to urge it forwardly on the hook. Preferably, the pusher also includes a display portion extending from the front face of the elongated portion.
