ABSTRACT:
A tray and method for packaging foil pans having outwardly-extending flange portions. The tray surrounds the outer bottom and side surfaces of the packaged foil pans, protecting the foil pans from damage. The tray includes an engagement portion with a lower surface and an inward protrusion, whereby the outwardly-extending flange portions of the packaged foil pans are securely held therebetween. An integral hang tab extends outwardly from the packaging tray to enable the tray with packaged foil pans to be hung from a display rack. Trays with packaged foil pans may be nested together in either a horizontal orientation or a vertical orientation. Foil pans may be snap-locked into the tray by pressing the outwardly-extending flange portions against the inward protrusion, which flexes allowing the foil pans to pass by and then snaps back to retain the foil pans within the tray.
