Product engagement packaging system and display

A method of for providing a convertible package, the method comprising:

• providing a package blank for a case convertible from a shipping configuration to a display configuration, the blank comprised of twelve polygonal panels defining a first end of the blank, a second end of the blank, first and second sides of the blank, the first and second sides of the blank each extending between the first and second ends of the blank, an interior of the blank positioned between the first and second sides of the blank and extending from the first end of the blank to the second end of the blank,
• the first end of the blank having a linear edge defined by a single polygonal panel and the second end of the blank having a linear edge defined by three polygonal panels, the first and second sides of the blank each having a linear edge defined by four polygonal panels, the interior of the blank is defined by four polygonal panels,
• a single tear line extending from the first side of the blank to the second side of the blank, the single tear line for converting the case from the shipping configuration to the display configuration;
• applying a first adhesive to a first group of panels;
• applying a second adhesive to a second group of panels, wherein the second adhesive is applied in the form of discrete depositions of adhesive material, the discrete depositions having a tear-drop shape, the tear-drop shape having a wide portion and a narrow portion, the narrow portion being oriented toward the first end of the blank;
• assembling the convertible package with an open top defined by at least four panels of the first group of panels, the convertible package having a bottom wall, a first side wall engaged to and extending from the bottom wall, a second side wall opposite the first side wall and engaged to and extending from the bottom wall, a front wall engaged to and extending from the bottom wall and a rear wall engaged to and extending from the bottom wall, the first side wall extending between the front wall and the rear wall along a first side of the bottom wall, the second side wall extending between the front wall and the rear wall along a second side of the bottom wall,
• the discrete depositions of adhesive material are positioned on the first side wall, second side wall, and the bottom wall, each of the plurality of material depositions having a height as measured from the side wall that the material deposition is positioned on, each of the discrete depositions of adhesive material positioned on the bottom wall having a height as measured from the bottom wall, the discrete depositions of adhesive material form a first pattern of spaced apart depositions on the first side wall, a second pattern on the second side wall, and a third pattern on the bottom wall, the second pattern being a mirror image of the first pattern;
• loading through the open top of the convertible package a plurality of product containers, each of the plurality of product containers having a product side surface, each of the plurality of product containers being mechanically engaged by one of the discrete depositions of adhesive material on the first side wall, one of the discrete depositions of adhesive material on the second side wall, only the product side surface of each of the plurality of product containers being engaged by the discrete depositions of adhesive material on the bottom wall.
