Revamping the Flavor and Design of Gyoza

Moranbon Inc., headquartered in Fuchu, Tokyo, is set to launch a redesigned packaging for its popular frozen gyoza, the "Jan Barbecue Sauce Enhanced Large Meat Gyoza," on November 1, 2025. This product is a unique offering since it blends the flavors from Moranbon’s flagship product, Jan Barbecue Sauce, into the gyoza, promising customers a delightful taste experience.

Background of the Packaging Renewal

The previous version of this gyoza was released to commemorate the 45th anniversary of Jan Barbecue Sauce in 2024. The updated packaging aims to clearly convey its features, such as the use of domestically sourced pork and vegetables, emphasizing its quality as a frozen “raw” gyoza. The refreshed design is tailored to highlight its characteristics better, catering to the evolving tastes of consumers who appreciate quality and convenience.

Key Features of the New Packaging

• - Increased Visibility: The packaging has been redesigned with bold graphics to enhance its visibility on store shelves, making it easier for customers to identify.
• - Prominent Brand Messaging: To draw attention to the use of Jan Barbecue Sauce, a large silhouette of the sauce bottle, labeled “Jan B.B.Q. Sauce 240g,” has been prominently featured on the packaging.
• - Emphasis on Freshness: The design underscores the concept of freshness, a key element shared by both Jan Barbecue Sauce and the large meat gyoza.

Flavor Profile

This innovative gyoza boasts a unique taste profile, influenced by the addition of Jan Barbecue Sauce. Here’s why this gyoza stands out:

• - Rich Flavor: The sauce enhances the natural umami and aroma of the ingredients, delivering a rich and satisfying taste.
• - Juicy Filling: Due to the frozen state, each gyoza retains a juicy filling that bursts with natural sweetness.
• - Generous Portion Size: Each package contains 12 substantial gyoza made with a robust filling of domestically sourced pork and vegetables, ensuring a hearty meal.

About Jan Barbecue Sauce

Jan's origin dates back to 1972 when the "Yakiniku Restaurant Moranbon" first opened. Customers loved the restaurant's barbecue sauce, leading to many requests for it to be sold separately. In response, the founder was determined to bring the authentic taste of their restaurant to homes. After seven years of development, prioritizing fresh and carefully selected ingredients, Moranbon launched Jan Barbecue Sauce in 1979, famously known as a product that challenged the traditional concept of long shelf-life offerings in the barbecue sauce market. This commitment ensured Jan Sauce preserved the original flavor and richness through its non-heated blend manufacturing process.
