Abstract
A stackable container with locking lid especially suitable for use in packaging grapes and other soft fruits comprises a container body having a lid of resiliently deformable material hinged to one side wall and a ledge on an adjacent end wall. The lid rests on the ledge. A stacking cleat on said adjacent end wall extends to a plane above the lid. A recess in the inner face of the stacking cleat is coplanar with the lid. A laterally-extending locking tongue extension of the lid coplanar with the recess is dimensioned for removable insertion into the recess upon closing the lid, thereby releasably locking the lid to the cleat.
