My guess is a hard-pressed retailer is attempting to make good use of an earlier but now stock-depleated display. In my father’s day as an independent grocer, he would acquire display fixtures as part of a brand promotion, and repurpose them later. In this case removing the branded color shelf edge label strip might avoid confusion … or do you think it cross sells the M&M chocolates?
