IQF Vegetables Market Poised for a 4.8% CAGR Growth Until 2033, Driven by Increasing Consumer Demand for Convenience and Freshness

The worldwide IQF vegetables market is expected to reach up to US$ 1.68 billion in 2022. The IQF vegetable sector is rapidly expanding as a result of changes in lifestyle and eating habits, as well as the expansion of several big retail chains. It is expected to produce US$ 2.81 billion by 2033, with a CAGR of 4.8% from 2023 to 2033. Convenience foods have displaced other fruits and vegetables due to the high speed of urbanization, particularly in developing nations, as well as expanding disposable income and influence.

IQF (Individual Quick Freezing) vegetables refer to vegetables that are rapidly frozen at extremely low temperatures to preserve their freshness, flavor, and nutritional value. This freezing technique involves individually freezing each piece of vegetable, preventing the formation of ice crystals and maintaining the integrity of the product.

The market for IQF vegetables is increasing as a result of evolving technological developments, attractive packaging, simple storage, and general availability. Market sales have increased dramatically as a result of the availability of balanced refrigeration solutions and linked retail locations. Local mid and small-sized farms provide the majority of the product portfolios in this market.

Younger people are increasingly searching for foods that can be kept, and consumed right away, and also have a longer shelf life since they are actively involved in numerous professional responsibilities across the world, especially in emerging nations like China and India. In order to save time on a daily basis chopping and buying vegetables, working millennials opt to purchase IQF vegetables. The increase in demand for IQF vegetables appears to be more beneficial for goods that are easy to prepare and consume. Imports of frozen sweet potatoes, mainly from the United States, have risen in the European Union over the past four years, indicating a degree of consumer partiality.
