1. A guide assembly for a displaying a plurality of products, the guide assembly comprising:
- a base including a product-supporting surface, the product-supporting surface of the base defining a longitudinal axis;
a first lateral wall including a first plurality of support members and a first rail, wherein each support member of the first plurality of support members extends upwardly from a first lateral side of the base and is configured to contact a product on the product-supporting surface of the base, and wherein the first rail is spaced above the base and extends along portions of each support member of the first plurality of support members; and
a second lateral wall including a second plurality of support members and a second rail, wherein each support member of the second plurality of support members extends upwardly from a second lateral side of the base and is configured to contact a product on the product-supporting surface of the base, wherein the second rail is spaced above the base and extends along portions of each support member of the second plurality of support members and a lateral distance between the first rail and the second rail is fixed;
wherein a proximal-most support member of the first plurality of support members is longitudinally offset from a proximal-most support member of the second plurality of support members wherein adjacent support members of the first plurality of support members are separated by a first distance, and wherein adjacent support members of the second plurality of support members are separated by the first distance and wherein corresponding support members of the first plurality of support members and support members of the second plurality of support members are longitudinally offset by a second distance, and wherein the second distance is equal to about half the first distance.
