1. A stackable display container constructed of a single piece of sheet material folded to form said container comprising:
- a substantially horizontal bottom wall having a left edge, a right edge, a front edge and a rear edge, said left and right edges having a curved configuration whereby said bottom wall is longer adjacent the center thereof than adjacent the front and rear edges, said bottom wall including left and right positioning slots formed therein, said slots being located adjacent said left and right edges, respectively, andleft and right side walls extending substantially vertically upwardly from said left and right side edges of said bottom wall;
each of said side walls including a positioning tab extending upwardly therefrom to cooperate with the bottom of a similarly constructed container stacked thereon, with the tabs of the lower container fitting into the slots in the bottom wall of the container directly above.

Abstract
A foldable container is formed from a single blank of sheet material which has stacking shoulders, reinforced corners side panels and display panels. The container includes a bottom section delimited by pairs of upright end panels and side panels. The bottom section is slightly wider adjacent its center than adjacent the front and back. Two of the side panels are foldably connected to peripheral segments of the bottom section, pre-glued and cooperate with the latter to form an open top product-accommodating compartment. The top edges of each of the side panels include shoulders for supporting a container stacked thereon and positioning tabs that extend upwardly and fit into corresponding openings in the bottom of the upper container. The lateral edge of each end panel and adjacent side panel has foldably connected thereto a corner-reinforcing member and create shopping accessibility from the front of the container. The reinforcing member includes a first section connected to the end panel edge and being secured in partially overlying relation with the interior surface of the adjacent side panel. The reinforcing member also includes a second section connected to the first section and secured thereto in at least a partial foldback overlying relation with the first section. A third section is connected to the second section and is secured in partially overlying relation to the interior surface of the end panel. This configuration can be mirrored on the back panel providing two-sided shopability and is adaptable for three or four sided shopability.
