Frozen food products have been among the popular segments of the convenience food sector. While the fresh V frozen argument continues to influence consumer mindsets, certain claims by the industry players and regulatory authorities may more likely work to the advantage of the frozen food market. The global frozen food market was valued at US$243.8 Bn in 2021 and is expected to index the valuation of US$362.2 Bn by 2029 end. This is due to the enforcement of stricter guidelines by regulatory authorities, as well as a growing sense of awareness concerning the benefits of leading a healthier lifestyle through better eating habits.
More emphasis is being given by manufacturers to improving the nutritional content of processed or frozen food products, as well as a greater demand for better quality products, particularly by younger generations of individuals who are willing to spend more for these products that offer more value. Additionally, improved, eco-friendly, flexible packaging solutions are also expected to play an integral part in boosting adoption of frozen foods. The market will index a CAGR of 4.9% over the forecast timeline, 2022 - 2029, says the report.
