Abstract: The present invention is a combination shipping and display device that is adapted to serve as both the manufacturer's packaging and an easily assembled display stand for said articles. The present invention securely holds the articles to be shipped and displayed within recesses in a tray portion of a container. The tray portion of the container is preferably composed of ethylene vinyl acetate and each tray is individually created for each order. The trays may hold a variety of different items, such as knives, bottles of wine, cheese, and the like. Whereas conventional manufacturer's packaging is suitable solely to ship objects to a given destination, the present invention also has an organized, aesthetically pleasing, and engaging configuration for holding the articles that makes it doubly suited as a display stand.
