ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A food tray for display of foodstuffs is made of rigid paperboard and includes a centrally located base panel having opposed sides and opposed ends and top and bottom major surfaces. Opposed pairs of inner and outer side wall panels are provided, with each outer side wall panel hingedly connected to and extending along a respective side of the base panel such that each side wall panel pair forms a side wall along each of the opposed sides of the base panel. The inner side wall panels each have an elongated base flap hingedly connected thereto, each said base flap being secured to the top major surface of the base panel, and the base flaps defining opposed ends. Opposed pairs of inner and outer end wall panels are provided, each outer end wall hingedly connected to a respective end of the base panel and each end wall panel pair being hingedly connected together to define an end wall extending along each of the opposed ends of the base panel. End flap means are secured to opposing ends of said inner and/or outer side wall panels, said end flap means being interposed between the associated inner and outer end wall panels to assist in securing the side and end walls in assembled positions generally at right angles to the base panel. Each of the inner end wall panels has a locking means defined along an edge thereof which is arranged such that when the side and end walls are in their respective assembled positions, said locking means lies in close juxtaposition to said base panel near the opposing ends thereof and in abutting relation to opposing ends of the base flaps which are secured to the base panel. This serves to retain the inner and outer end walls in close juxtaposition to each other and thus, together with said end flap means, assists in securing the side and end walls in their respective assembled positions.
