A two piece thermoformed container comprising a tray and a lid for holding large and small objects is provided. The container is portable, recloseable and provides easy access to the contents. The tray includes a front wall, rear wall and opposing side walls. Each side wall defines an elongated rib. The lid comprises a rear covering portion, a recessed front covering portion and side walls. The lid side walls form grooves which receive the tray ribs. The lid is moveable in a sliding fashion between a fully closed position in which the lid front portion abuts the tray front wall and a fully opened position in which lid backstops abut the tray rear wall. The lid and tray may remain engaged at all times.
