  • Patent number: 11312532
    Abstract: A shelf-ready packaging (SRP) and method for transporting and displaying food products are provided, the SRP configured to be efficient in transporting a high number of the food products while also still being able to fit on a retail store shelf. To this end, the SRP includes a cover element and a base tray including first and second tray portions connected along a single tear line. To convert the SRP from a first transport configuration to a second display configuration, the cover element is lifted off the base tray and the first and second tray portions are separated along the tear line, which thereby changes the overall length of the SRP such that it can fit on the standard retail store shelf. The SRP provides a clean, uniform appearance when in the second display configuration while providing maximum visibility and access to the food products stored therein.
