Updates
Update #1

When preparing the design, please consider that such "face" elements as volume and name should always be centered on the label without overlapping technical information, seams, and unfinished design elements; all these moments are subsequently visible on the shelf and slightly spoil the product.

Then there was a question about cutouts; the label is always rectangular because we do not change the bottle, and a special space for the label is provided on the bottle, which we tried to depict in the photo.

Update #5

Dear participants, regarding the positioning of the product, we are making a correction, as many have started to place sushi and rolls on the label, since traditionally soy sauce is for Japanese cuisine. We want to emphasize that our message should be that soy sauce is suitable not only for sushi and rolls, but also for salads, meat, miso soup, etc. 

Therefore, those who have already placed work with sushi and rolls in the picture can, if they have the time and desire, submit work with other dishes.

Update #6

Good afternoon participants, competitors.

We try to provide feedback more often; at this stage, we have rejected several works, and we will explain to everyone who is interested why.

I would like to add that a focus group of at least 50 people is involved in the selection of works; we take our work very seriously, so we definitely test each design against several criteria.
