ABSTRACT:
A merchandise holder for use with slat-wall displays and merchandise display systems incorporating the holder provided. The merchandise holder includes a base member having a front and a back, a merchandise retention member mounted on and extending forwardly of the base member and a channel engaging structure on the back of the base member. The channel engaging structure also has a biasing element to bias the base member into positive engagement with a lower retention wall that forms the lower portion of the channel. This biasing element presses against either an upper retention wall forming the slot and/or channel or an upper side wall of the channel. The channel engaging structure may be a pair of flanges that are mounted on and extend rearwardly of the base member; a lower flange engages the lower retention wall, and an upper flange engages an upper retention wall. The biasing element is preferably a pair of resilient arms that extend outwardly from the upper flange. The merchandise holder may be formed as an integral molded plastic piece so that the arms are formed of resilient plastic. Alternatively, the biasing element may be a spring clip.
