A multi-pack packaging sleeve comprises first and second pack receiving pockets each constructed and arranged to receive at least one product pack. A sliding connection between the first and second pack receiving pockets includes a lock slot on the first pack receiving pocket and a slide lock flap on the second pack receiving pocket slidably received within the lock slot on the first pack receiving pocket. The sliding connection enables the first and second pack receiving pockets to move relative to one another between abutting positions and a position where the pack receiving pockets are slightly spaced apart from one another to thereby define a notch between the pockets for cooperative engagement with the rails of a product display and dispensing rack.
