• filling the container with the articles to be shipped and displayed;
• stretching a netting member having an open weave across the open portion of the top and between the top panels;
• and
• fixing opposing ends of the netting member to the container body.

• a netting member having a width dimensioned to extend across the open portion of the top and lengthwise ends dimensioned to extend across the open portion of the top and along outside faces of two opposing side walls;
• two header sheets, each attached to a lengthwise end of the netting member and fixed to one of the outside faces of the side walls;
• and wherein
• each header sheet is fixed to an outside face of a side wall with an adhesive layer.
