The demand for frozen food is expected to rise at a CAGR of 6.9% from 2023 to 2033, taking the valuation to US$ 629,649 million by 2033. The fast-paced modern lifestyle has led to an increased preference for convenient meal options.

Despite its growth, the frozen food industry faces certain restraints. One significant challenge is the perception that frozen foods are less healthy than fresh options. Consumers often associate frozen foods with high levels of preservatives and additives, which can deter health-conscious buyers. Additionally, concerns about the environmental impact of frozen food packaging, especially non-recyclable materials, have led to calls for more sustainable practices. Furthermore, the industry must address product labeling and transparency issues to build consumer trust. Overcoming these restraints is essential for sustained growth.
