ABSTRACT:
A system for positioning uniformly sized containers such as canned or boxed merchandise in longitudinally extending rows on a laterally extending display shelf adjacent a wall. A spacing member extends laterally on top of the shelf removed from the wall. The spacing member may have a plurality of arcuate recesses formed in the front face thereof for receiving and aligning a row of cans. A plurality of laterally spaced support members are utilized to hold the spacing member in an upright position. The support members each have one end inserted into a space between the rear edge of the shelf and the wall and another end engaged with the spacing member. The support members are dimensioned so that a longitudinally extending row of a predetermined number of abutting containers will substantially extend between the front edge of the shelf and the spacing member. The system allows quick and efficient stocking of containerized merchandise on the front portion of the shelf. It eliminates the conventional practice of utilizing cans or boxes in the rear of the shelf as spacers to support a plurality of rows on the forward portion of the shelf. The amount of hidden merchandise is reduced and losses due to longer than shelf life storage are minimized.
