Abstract
A corrugated shelf extender having an upper section and a lower section is provided. The lower section is configured to be received by an inner area of a vertical support post. The upper section is configured to extend above the vertical support post so as to provide support for signage or the like. The lower section includes a channel that is configured so as to enable a section of the vertical support post that receives the lower section of the shelf extender to be simultaneously utilized by the shelf extender and one or more mounting lug. The corrugated shelf extender is manufactured from a flat piece of continuous corrugated material by folding the corrugated material so as to fabricate an inner portion and an outer portion. The inner portion includes an upper portion that nests within the outer portion and a lower portion that extends from the outer portion such that the upper section of the shelf extender includes the outer portion and the upper portion of the inner portion and the lower section of the shelf extender includes the lower portion of the inner portion.
