ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A molded, stackable and nestable beverage can tray having tapered side walls and end walls, contoured window openings in both the side walls and end walls, and having contoured window openings in both the side walls and end walls to snugly contain the cans is disclosed. The bottom length and width dimensions of the tray are less than the sum of the diameters of rows of cans placed in the tray. Trays according to the invention have a 3:2 length-to-width ratio for cross-typing stacks, and have a tray bottom design having generally diamond-shaped standoffs projecting downwardly from the bottom of the tray to lock onto the tops of the cans contained in the tray immediately beneath the can tray. The trays include can bottom seating rings capable of receiving and centering cans having a range of bottom diameter dimensions. Trays according to the invention have side walls and end walls which are tapered at an angle of preferably 10°, thereby enabling the trays to be nested to 67% of their overall height when stacked in an empty condition.
