ABSTRACT:
A container for the shipping and display of goods includes a box formed from a first blank. The box includes a front panel having upper and lower flaps, a first side panel having upper and lower flaps, a second side panel having upper and lower flaps, and a rear panel having upper and lower flaps. A breakaway panel defined by a first line of weakness is formed within a portion of one or more of the aforesaid panels. A breakaway assist panel is formed from a distinct, separate second blank. The breakaway assist panel is adhered to the breakaway panel to facilitate separation of the breakaway panel from the box, by first pulling on the breakaway assist panel to rupture the first line of weakness and then removing the joined breakaway panel and breakaway assist panel.
