ABSTRACT:
A display shelf comprises a back in and elongate parallel tracks arranged side by side along the lower side of the backing panel. Each track is adapted to support a row of articles such that the articles in the row are suspended from each track for movement along that track. The backing panel and the tracks are formed together as a unitary structure. A method of making the display shelf comprises forming moldable material into a unitary structure including a backing panel and parallel hollow longitudinal ribs arranged side by side along one of the opposite sides of the backing panel. Each longitudinal rib includes a pair of longitudinally extending opposed side walls interconnected by a longitudinally extending bridging wall. The method also comprises cutting a slot in the bridging wall of each longitudinal rib. The slot in each longitudinal rib extends along that rib such that a pair of spaced parallel rails along the side walls are created out of the bridging wall to receive therebetween the top portions of the articles of the row.
