A merchandise storage container includes a tray slidable into and out of an outer sleeve with both formed as rigid set up boxes. The tray slides from a retracted position wherein it is disposed within and protected by an outer sleeve to an extended position with respect to an outer sleeve wherein the merchandise holder is accessible. The tray configuration provides for essentially full extension of the holder from the sleeve while preventing the tray from being readily separated from the sleeve. The merchandise holder is carried by or formed from a portion of the tray. The rear wall of the rigid set up box tray functions to lock the tray within the outer sleeve.

A hang tab can be configured into a plurality of different positions that allow the merchandise with which it is used to be display in different configurations. The hang tab can be configured in an extended position for hanging the merchandise and a collapsed position wherein the merchandise is going to be placed on a shelf. In one configuration, the hang tab includes a body defined by a hook portion and a base portion. The hook portion is pivotably mounted to the base portion. One of the hook and base portion includes at least one locking tab with the other of the hook and base portion defining at least one locking recess. When the locking tab is received in the locking recess, the position of the hang tab is fixed with the locking tab in the extended position that allows the hang tab to hang from a hook.

Hang tab with multiple positions

A merchandise storage container includes belly band retaining tabs. The retaining tabs are moved to their extended positions when the merchandise storage container is formed. The retaining tabs are disposed at the corners of the container so that a belly band used with the container can slide up and down along the length of the container while encountering at least some resistance at the corners before the band separates from the container. The retaining tabs are flexible so that a person can intentionally remove a belly band by pivoting the tabs out of the way or by forcing the belly band over the tabs.
