The expanding consumption of processed food items, including frozen meat, vegetables, and dairy products, alongside shifts in consumer dietary preferences, is propelling the growth of the Freezers market. As individuals increasingly adopt busy lifestyles, there is a growing reliance on processed foods and ready-to-eat meals that necessitate storage in freezers. Rentokil reports that the global processed food industries are valued at $2 trillion, indicating a substantial market for processed food products, thereby driving the demand for Freezers.
The upsurge in the Freezers market is fueled by a heightened focus on reducing food waste. Consumer behavior, characterized by excessive purchasing, neglect of leftovers, and misinterpretation of product expiration dates, contributes significantly to food waste. Inadequate storage and infrastructure, particularly in developing nations, further exacerbate food loss in the supply chain. Freezers serve as essential tools in curbing food waste by enabling consumers to freeze surplus food, leftovers, and fresh produce, thereby extending their shelf life. Practices such as effective labeling, organization, and periodic review of freezer contents aid in preventing forgotten items. For example, in September 2023, as reported by Times of Agriculture, a monthly agriculture magazine in India, the Ministry of Agriculture in India disclosed that nearly $600 million worth of food is wasted annually. The Food Wastage Index report by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) highlighted that Indian households discard around 68.7 million tons of food each year, approximately 50 kilograms per person. India holds the second position globally in household food wastage, with only China ranking higher. Hence, the growing emphasis on reducing food waste is a key driver for the expansion of the Freezers market in the forecast period.
Freezer manufacturers are integrating technologies like IoT and embedded sensors into their products to enhance overall functionality. These manufacturers are introducing advanced human-machine interface designs in freezers and creating models that can automatically identify the type and weight of the food stored within, adjusting and monitoring the temperature accordingly. For instance, in September 2023, Cooltrax, a US-based provider of cold chain solutions, unveiled its latest innovation, the Cooltrax TempTracker temperature management solution. This advanced solution is intended to improve temperature monitoring across various cold chain operations, including refrigerated trucks, trailers, and other assets. The new TempTracker kit features faster data uploads, wider coverage, and enhanced reliability and security. These innovative capabilities aim to improve the efficiency and accuracy of temperature management in transporting goods that require specific temperature conditions.
