A floor display system comprising a base portion including a front wall having opposing first and second vertical edges, and first and second side walls extending from the vertical edges in generally perpendicular relation to the front wall. At least one side wall slot is formed in each of the first and second side walls and connected to respective front wall slot portions formed in the front wall. At least one tray is provided including a tray body connected to at least one mounting flap portion positioned in each of the side wall slots in the first and second side walls and extending into the corresponding front wall slot portions for supporting the tray body to the base portion.

1. A floor display system comprising: a base including a front wall having opposing first and second vertical edges, and first and second side walls extending from the vertical edges in generally perpendicular relation to the front wall, wherein the first and second side walls each have an inner surface, an outer surface, a top edge, a bottom edge, a front edge, and a rear edge;at least one side wall slot formed in each of the first and second side walls and continuously connected to respective front wall horizontal slot portions formed in the front wall;wherein the side wall slots extend diagonally downward from the corresponding front wall horizontal slot portions;at least one tray including a bottom, a back wall, and a pair of side walls, wherein the back wall, and the pair of side walls extend upwardly from the bottom of the tray; wherein the bottom, the back wall, and the pair of side walls of each tray define a compartment to confine products within each tray; wherein a mounting flap portion protrudes from and is integrally connected to the back wall of each tray; and the mounting flap portion is angled and positioned in each of the side wall slots in the first and second side walls while extending into the corresponding front wall horizontal slot portions to suspend each tray from the base. 2. The floor display system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the side wall slots are each defined by first and second slot edges connected at a slot apex distal from the front wall and diverging from each other extending from each slot apex toward the front wall. 3. The floor display system as set forth in claim 2, wherein each of the side wall slots includes a detent edge extending from one of the first and second slot edges toward the other of the first and second slot edges and defining a reduced width of each side wall slot adjacent to the front wall. 4. The floor display system as set forth in claim 3, wherein the mounting flap portion includes first and second flap sections joined at a flap fold positioned adjacent to each slot apex. 5. The floor display system as set forth in claim 4, wherein the first flap section is hingedly connected to the back wall of the tray and the second flap section includes a locking edge distal from the flap fold and engaged against the detent edges to resist movement of the mounting flap portion out of the side wall slots. 6. The floor display system as set forth in claim 3, wherein each detent edge extends generally perpendicular to said one of the first and second slot edges of each side wall slot. 7. The floor display system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the front wall slot portions are defined by a continuous slot extending across an entire width of the front wall, and the mounting flap portion has a width greater than the entire width of the front wall. 8. The floor display system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the front wall horizontal slot portions are defined by a pair of separated slots extending horizontally across the front wall adjacent to the vertical edges, and the mounting flap portion comprises separate first and second mounting flap members engaged in the first and second side wall slots respectively. 9. A method of forming a floor display system comprising: providing a base including a front wall having opposing first and second vertical edges, and first and second side walls connected to the front wall at vertical fold lines defined at the first and second vertical edges, wherein the first and second side walls each have an inner surface, an outer surface, a top edge, a bottom edge, a front edge, and a rear edge;providing at least one side wall slot formed in each of the first and second side walls and continuously connected to respective front wall horizontal slot portions formed in the front wall;wherein the side wall slots extend diagonally downward from the corresponding front wall horizontal slot portions;pivoting the first and second side walls about the vertical fold lines to positions generally perpendicular to the front wall to form a vertical column;providing a tray, the tray including a bottom, a back wall, and a pair of side walls, wherein the back wall, and the pair of side walls extend upwardly from the bottom of the tray; wherein the bottom, the back wall, and the pair of side walls of the tray define a compartment to confine products within the tray; wherein a mounting flap portion protrudes from and is hingedly connected to the back wall of the tray; wherein the mounting flap portion includes first and second flap sections joined at a flap fold;folding the second flap section into overlapping relation over the first flap section;inserting the mounting flap portion, flap fold first, through the front wall horizontal slot portions and angling the mounting flap portions into the side wall slots in the first and second side walls to suspend the tray from the base. 10. The method as set forth in claim 9, wherein the tray is formed of corrugated paperboard and the second flap section is resiliently biased from the first flap section at the flap fold by the corrugated paperboard to engage opposing edges defining each of the side wall slots as the mounting flap portion is inserted into the side wall slots. 11. The method as set forth in claim 9, wherein the side wall slots each include an entry section adjacent to the front wall and a latching section located inwardly from the entry section, and insertion of the mounting flap portion includes positioning the second flap section within the latching sections. 12. The method as set forth in claim 11, wherein each latching section is defined by opposing slot edges that diverge extending from a slot apex toward each entry section and a detent edge extending transverse to and connecting an edge of the entry section and an adjacent edge of the latching section of each side wall slot, and inserting the mounting flap portion includes the second flap section moving away from the first flap section as a locking edge of the second flap section, distal from the flap fold, moves into the latching sections to engage the detent edges. 13. The method as set forth in claim 9, wherein the side wall slots each include an entry section adjacent to the front wall; wherein inserting the mounting flap portion includes inserting the first and second flap sections through the entry sections at an acute angle relative to the vertical fold lines. 14. The method as set forth in claim 9, wherein the base further includes a back wall attached to the first and second side walls at second vertical fold lines, wherein pivoting the first and second side walls about the front and back walls forms the base as a rectangular tube.
