ABSTRACT:
A shelf assembly comprising a shelf having a front frame member and a rear frame member and a plurality of substantially parallel dividers extending between the front frame member and the rear frame member. The dividers are arranged in pairs defining a plurality of tracks for supporting a plurality of products arranged in columns between the pairs of dividers. At least one pusher is located within each track for urging a column of products forwardly along the track. Each pusher comprises a sheet of flexible material having a memory characteristic which biases the sheet toward a flat planar orientation. Each pusher is forced into an upwardly bowed inverted U-shaped configuration between the rear frame member of the shelf and a rearwardmost product in a column of products in a track so as to urge the column of products forwardly toward the front frame member when a forwardmost product is removed.
