Mavromata is a brand that specializes in black currents, and the name is actually translated to "black-eyed woman" in the Greek language. As such the branding for this food used this as a source of inspiration when coming up with the [packaging and logo elements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/higgidy-1).

The top part of the packaging has an eyeball with a black pupil in the center, making it quite the literal representation of what the name of the brand actually stands for. Below this is a [clear opening in the bag](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scotts-protein-ball), allowing for people to actually see the product inside (which helps with tempting people to go ahead and actually buy the item).

In terms of [graphic design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cooper-street-snacks), this is an excellent example of a literal interpretation of the name done well.
