North America Frozen Fruits Market Size (2024 to 2029)

The North American frozen fruits market was worth USD 0.76 billion in 2023. The North American market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.54% from 2024 to 2029 and be worth USD 1.05 billion by 2029 from USD 0.8 billion in 2024.

Frozen fruits consist of high levels of vital vitamins and potentially useful antioxidants compared to fresh ones, and they help protect against 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.  

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 the North American market.
