a first pair of walls extending upward from the base; and
a second pair of walls extending upward from the base, wherein the curved profile of the base extends upward from each of the first pair of walls and peaks along a middle portion of the second pair of walls, the curved profile of the base includes one continuous curve extending from one of the first pair of walls to another one of the first pair of walls, and the second pair of walls each include a curved profile that curves in the same direction as the curved profile of the base and an inner wall portion spaced from an outer wall portion by an upper wall portion.
2. The tray of claim 1 , wherein the second pair of walls include the inner wall portion spaced from the outer wall portion by at least one gusset.
3. The tray of claim 1 , wherein the curved profile of the second pair of walls includes a peak at a middle portion of the second pair of walls.
4. The tray of claim 3 , wherein the second pair of walls includes include the inner wall portion spaced from the outer wall portion by at least one gusset.
5. The tray of claim 1 , wherein base includes a support surface and a plurality of ribs extending downward from the support surface and a plurality of openings formed through the support surface between the ribs to form a grid.
6. The tray of claim 1 , wherein the first pair of walls include a plurality of ribs on an outer surface.
7. The tray of claim 1 , wherein the curved profile of the second pair of walls is identical to at least a portion of the curved profile of the base.
8. A tray comprising:
a base including a plurality of ribs extending downward from a support surface, a plurality of openings formed through the support surface between the ribs to form a grid;
a first pair of opposed walls extending upward from the base; and
a second pair of opposed walls extending upward from the base, wherein the base extends upward from each of the first pair of walls and peaks along a middle portion of the second pair of walls, the second pair of walls each include a lowermost edge that is curved upward toward the middle portion of the second pair of walls and curves in the same direction as the curved profile of the base wherein the second pair of walls each include an uppermost edge that is curved upward toward the middle portion of the second pair of walls wherein the second pair of walls each include an inner wall portion spaced from an outer wall portion by an upper wall portion, wherein the inner wall portion includes the lowermost edge and wherein the upper wall portion forms the uppermost edge.
9. The tray of claim 8 , wherein the base extends along one continuous curve extending from one of the first pair of walls to another one of the first pair of walls.
10. The tray of claim 8 , wherein the outer wall portion of each of the second pair of walls includes a lowermost edge that is curved upward toward the middle portion of the second pair of walls.
11. The tray of claim 10 , wherein the first pair of walls include a plurality of ribs on an outer surface.
12. The tray of claim 8 wherein the first pair of walls each include a plurality of feet configured to provide low stacking height when stacked on an identical tray in a first orientation and to provide a high stacking height when the tray is rotated 180 degrees relative to first orientation.
13. A tray comprising:
a convex base including a plurality of ribs extending downward from a support surface, a plurality of openings formed through the support surface between the ribs to form a grid;
a first pair of opposed walls extending upward from the base, wherein the first pair of walls each include a plurality of feet configured to provide low stacking height when stacked on an identical tray in a first orientation and to provide a high stacking height when the tray is rotated 180 degrees relative to first orientation; and
a second pair of opposed walls extending upward from the base, wherein the second pair of walls each include a lowermost edge that is curved upward toward a middle portion of the second pair of walls to follow a curve of the base and the second pair of walls each include an uppermost edge that is curved upward toward the middle portion of the second pair of walls and the second pair of walls each include an inner wall portion spaced from an outer wall portion by an upper wall portion, wherein the inner wall portion includes the lowermost edge and wherein the upper wall portion forms the uppermost edge, wherein the outer wall portion of each of the second pair of walls includes a lowermost edge that is curved upward toward the middle portion of the second pair of walls.
14. The tray of claim 13 , wherein the first pair of walls each include a plurality of ribs on an outer surface.
