Custom Pdq Boxes are retail-ready corrugated display trays that ship product to the shelf and sell it from the shelf, built for brands placing goods at grocery, convenience, and big-box checkout. We print them full-color on durable corrugated board so your tray doubles as a branded merchandiser the moment a stocker opens the case.
Because a PDQ (pretty darn quick) tray arrives pre-packed and drops straight onto the shelf, you cut stocking labor and keep facings tidy during high-velocity promotions. Printed side walls and a header card turn the tray into a silent salesperson, which is why beverage, snack, and impulse-buy brands lean on them for end-cap and counter placements.

- Counter and checkout impulse displays
- End-cap promotions for snacks, beverages, and personal care
- Pre-packed retail drops that reduce shelf-stocking time
- Seasonal or limited-run product pushes
Printing & Finishing
Print inside and outside to brand every visible panel, then add matte or gloss lamination for scuff resistance through shipping. A printed header card lifts your logo above the shelf line, and custom partitions keep multi-SKU trays organized and front-facing.
