ABSTRACT:
A container for shipping and displaying an individually packaged food comestible. It includes retainers which permanently retain the package when the container is closed. The container is created from a unitary sheet blank produced by the single strike of a die. The blank includes bottom, top and side panels demarcated by longitudinal and transverse fold lines. Two parallel transverse fold lines define matched side flaps on each side panel and retainer tabs on the bottom panel. Oblique fold lines, at angles of less than 90.degree. with respect to the transverse fold lines, form four side sections disposed between each side flap and its corresponding retainer tab. In manufacturing the container, from the blank, each pair of side flaps and retainer tab are folded, along respective transverse fold lines, into contact with the corresponding side panels and bottom panel. Each side flap is securely held, relative to its respective side panel. When a package is placed within the confines of the bottom panel, and the panels are folded along the longitudinal fold lines, the act of folding causes the retainer tabs to lift away from the bottom panel and into a compressed uplifted position which firmly retains the package.
