Abstract
A carton formed from a unitary blank, wherein the carton is used for shipping and displaying purposes. When shipping, products are positioned within the carton in a manner in which the available space within the carton is utilized efficiently. When the carton is ready to be placed in a display mode, an upper portion of the carton is detached and the front panel of the carton folds forward to allow products which are positioned within the carton in a non-displayable manner to be placed thereon for display purposes.
