Pallet merchandising system for containers

Abstract

A palletized merchandising system comprises a pallet, a plurality of like containers stacked in layers on the pallet and a divider sheet interposed between the layers of like containers. The like containers comprise a unitary blow molded body of a generally parallelepiped shape. The like containers have a top face, bottom face, a front face and side walls and a diagonally extending parting line. A pour spout in the top face is spaced along the parting line towards one corner of the top face. A handle on the top face extends upwardly from the top face and is spaced along the parting line. A recess in the bottom face extends upwardly therefrom and is spaced along the parting line. The recess is sized to receive a handle of a like container in a stacking relation. The divider sheets have a plurality of apertures adapted to receive the handles of the like containers and to orient the front face of the like containers when an upper layer of like containers is stacked over a lower layer of like containers.
