Many developing countries are posing great opportunities for investing in the frozen fruits market as many consumers in the urban areas are rising in acceptance of this convenient lifestyle of consuming frozen food. Due to many beneficial factors in frozen food products in comparison to fresh products, there is an increasing demand in the global market. Various market entities are also catering to that demand, providing a generous amount of growth opportunities in the global frozen fruits and vegetables market forecast. Due to various health concerns, more and more consumers are shifting from canned food to frozen foods, fostering more predictable growth in the fruit and vegetable market. Frozen food manufacturers are using technologies such as individual quick freezing (IQF) to improve yield and quality of frozen foods. The IQF method involves transferring the individual food items on a conveyor belt into a blast freezer that quickly freezes the items. With IQF method, every individual piece of food is frozen separately, as opposed to bulk or block freezing. The increasing demand for local, sustainable and organic food production is expected to positively impact the frozen and fruit & vegetable market during the forecast period. Organic food production including organic frozen and fruit & vegetable market places a strong emphasis on consumer health, environmental protection and animal welfare. Consumers now are becoming more concerned with how food is raised and prepared and are willing to pay a little more for something they recognize as healthy. Across Europe, there is a very high import rate (especially for fruits and vegetables) as the rate of production is far lower than the consumption demands for organic produce. The wide variety of frozen fruits and vegetables are ready to be eaten, such as foods, noodles and pasta, breakfast cereals, fruit juices and smoothies, salads and desserts, and others are well-known products around the world. Covid-19 Impact: The sudden outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has led to the changing consumer inclination from conventional brick-and-mortar distribution channels towards online retail platforms for the purchase of frozen fruits and vegetables. The growth is mainly due to the companies rearranging their operations and recovering from the COVID-19 impact, which had earlier led to restrictive containment measures involving social distancing, remote working, and the closure of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges. The outbreak of Corona-virus disease (COVID-19) has acted as a massive restraint on the frozen and fruit & vegetable market in 2020 as supply chains were disrupted due to trade restrictions and consumption declined due to lockdowns imposed by governments globally. However, it is expected that the frozen and fruit & vegetable market will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a ’black swan’ event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy.
