The report entitled “Global Frozen Food (Potato Products, Fruit & Vegetable, Meat & Poultry, Ready Meals, Seafood & Fish Products) Market, Outlook, 2027” gives a detailed insight into the various segments related to global frozen food products in the market along with historical & forecasted analysis. Frozen food product consumption has been observed as a growing trend globally with increasing demand from developed and developing countries. The market is segmented into various frozen food products such as frozen potato, frozen fruits & vegetables, frozen ready meals, frozen meat & seafood. The growing adaption of each segment has let the global frozen food market grow dynamically with a CAGR of above 3% historically with around USD 220 Billion market size. This has been highly supported by the excessive adaption of frozen meat and poultry products.
This is followed by the consumption of frozen potato products as conventional foods. The frozen potato products are present in the menu of almost every fast-food outlet, restaurants, small and large-scale stores. Along with these segments, the adaption of other frozen products has convincingly increased as a trend has been observed of people preferring to be vegan, and adaption of nutritious food has led fruits and vegetables to grow. Awareness regarding protein and nutrition led to significant demand for frozen fish and other kinds of seafood owing to the demand for long shelf life. Continuous busy lifestyles and lesser time available for cooking in a full schedule of work have inclined consumers to shift towards the consumption of a frozen ready meal. As the ready meals are enriched with complete nutrients that are sold through, direct selling channels and convenience stores.
The increasing consumer preference toward expediency foods indirectly favors the increasing demand for frozen products as they require less time and effort as compared to cooking from scratch. The processed food market is driven by the greater need for convenience due to the busy lifestyles of consumers. This, in turn, increases the demand for frozen products. Increasing disposable income is also one such factor that has a huge influence on the growth of the frozen food market as it increases the buying power of consumers. One of the latest trends driving the market is online grocery shopping and the introduction of new apps, making it convenient for consumers to pick their preferred products. Consumers are inclined toward online shopping due to features of convenience and variety. With the growing penetration of the Internet and smartphone usage, retail grocery shopping is emerging as one of the platforms for companies to showcase and sell their food products. In the recent rise of vegan and plant-based food, demand for frozen vegan food has also gone up.
To cater to this demand, plant-based frozen food brand Tattooed Chef exceeded its distribution goal of 10,000 stores, and is on a charge to become a major provider of plant-based frozen foods. The company also has plans to expand into refrigerated and ambient products soon. In addition to that, on August 17, 2021, Real Good Foods Company, a known name in the frozen foods industry, announced the launch of seven new frozen products in 1,500 Kroger stores across the United States. These new entrées are high in protein, low carb, grain-free, and gluten-free, and hence, help consumers stay on track with their health goals and enjoy a good meal at the same time. This is an addition to the line of entrées that the company launched back in 2020. With brands focusing and expanding their frozen product portfolios, we are expecting to see some major changes in the global frozen foods landscape.
Further, the most crucial factor driving the consumption of frozen foods comes from the kitchen itself. A majority of women in the western regions continue to opt for ready-to-eat foods instead of wasting a lot of time on cooking meals. In such scenarios, dependents continue to buy frozen foods and furnish the demands of the housewives. Home cooks, chef and other culinary professionals, on the other hand, might not promote the use of frozen foods and will continue catering to intricately cooked cuisines. Proactive lifestyle has urged people to consumer frozen food products whenever they have spare time. Easier availability of frozen foods has influenced the purchasing patterns of consumer regarding dietary products, rendering a firm place for frozen foods in their list of daily consumables.
Covid-19 Impacts:
The first month of the year 2020, has witnessed a breakdown of Corona-virus (COVID-19) across the world. Almost all the countries in the world have proposed a country level lockdown in which people are restricted to go outside their houses. This panic situation around the globe has propelled the demand for frozen food products owing to their higher shelf life. In addition, it helps the customers to reduce their number of visits to the market places for shopping for frozen food products. These world market trends fuelled the market growth for frozen food in the year 2020. In the last few months of the year 2020, from January to March, the retail markets including supermarkets/hypermarkets have witnessed a huge shortage of food items owing to the disrupted supply chain. All major countries in the world have locked their international and local state borders in order to prevent the entry of this virus in their countries. This situation has propelled the demand for frozen food capable of retaining the properties of nutritional ingredients for a longer time.
