Market Overview:

Frozen Fruits consist of high levels of vital vitamins and potentially useful antioxidants as compared to the fresh ones, and also help in protecting against the heart diseases.

Frozen Fruits are conserved at a temperature usually below -9.5°C, at which all moisture is in the solid condition. This averts the advance of microorganisms, decelerates decomposition and in turn aids in keeping fruits fresh for a prolonged period of time.  

Drivers and Restraints:

The growth of the North America Frozen Fruits market is majorly driven by factors such as availability of an extensive range of frozen fruit products, shifting customer purchasing patterns, and introduction of products with high nutritional value. Also, the rising population of working women has prompted the need for ready to eat convenience food, thereby replacing the conventional home cooked food. However, heavy presence of sodium and artificial preservatives in frozen foods, high price rates, and loss of natural aromas are some of the factors hindering the growth of the market in this region. Also, high upkeep and logistics cost at a cryogenic temperature for these foods are expected to pose a problem for the companies in this market.
