By product, the convenience food & ready meals segment is estimated to account for the largest share in the frozen food market in 2018.

On the basis of product, the convenience food & ready meals segment is estimated to dominate the frozen food market in 2018. This is due to the increasing consumer preference toward convenience foods, which indirectly favors the increasing demand for frozen products, as they require less time and efforts. The processed food market is driven by the greater need for convenience due to the busy lifestyles of consumers. This, in turn, increases the demand for frozen products. Increasing disposable income is also one such factor that had a huge influence on the growth of the frozen food market, as it increases the buying power of the consumers.

The frozen food market is witnessing  strong growth due to the developments in the retail landscape.

The development of retail channels in the form of supermarkets, hypermarkets, and convenience stores has driven the growth of the frozen food market. These large food chains form a significant growing outlet for frozen food products, owing to the latest trend of on-the-go consumption. With this, the supermarkets are also able to capture their share in the frozen bakery food market, as a result of the increasing demand for exotic vegetables and fruits and in-house bakers. This trend is driving the frozen food market, especially the frozen bread market.
