What Is The Driver Of The Freezers Market?

The surge in the freezers market is propelled by the growing emphasis on food waste reduction. A prevalent contributor to this issue is consumer conduct, which includes excessive buying, neglect of leftovers, and misinterpretation of product expiration dates. Inadequate storage and infrastructure, especially in developing countries, contribute to food loss in the supply chain. Freezers are valuable tools for reducing food waste. They allow consumers to freeze surplus food, leftovers, and fresh produce, extending their shelf life. Effective labeling, organizing, and periodically reviewing freezer contents help avoid forgotten items. For instance, in September 2023, according to Times of Agriculture, an India-based a monthly agriculture magazine in India that covers articles related to latest agriculture news, agribusiness, and agri startups, The Ministry of Agriculture, India reported that nearly $ 600 million worth of food gets wasted each year. As per the Food Wastage Index report by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), Indian households discard approximately 68.7 million tons of food each year. In other words, this translates to around 50 kilograms per person. India ranks second globally in terms of food wastage at the household level, with only China ahead. Therefore, growing emphasis on food waste reduction is driving the growth of the freezers industry in the forecast period.
