Inageya said its “Kodawari no Dai Gyoza” made with Bimibuta pork has received a gold award in the delicatessen gyoza division of the JAPAN Gyoza Awards 2026. The result is notable because the product won on its first entry.

The recognition gives a boost to Inageya’s prepared-food lineup, highlighting one of its signature supermarket side-dish items in a national gyoza competition. The award focuses on ready-to-eat or deli-style gyoza, a category that is closely watched by shoppers looking for convenient meal options.

The winning product is presented as a large, carefully made gyoza featuring Bimibuta pork. While the announcement does not go into detailed judging criteria, the gold prize suggests the item stood out among other entries in the prepared-food segment.

The news was released by United Super Markets Holdings, underscoring how retailers are using product awards to strengthen their food offerings and brand appeal. For Inageya, the first-time gold award adds momentum to its deli business and gives extra visibility to one of its gyoza products.
