Tyson approached York Label, which created a label featuring a gold-outlined shield and crest area containing red, white, and gold elements on a blue background. The label leaves ample room for viewing the meat through the clear, flexible pack.

Eye tracking showed that consumers foremost noticed the brand name—91% of the time. In quantitative research, the design was noted within 4 seconds by 26% of consumers—a significant improvement from the previous design.
