The freeze-dried food market is driven by a number of variables like the increasing demand for food preservation globally. The other factors include growing urbanisation, increasing demand for customer convenient products, and the shelf life of the product. Multiple food items, including fruits and vegetables, fishs and meats are freeze-dried to enhance their shelf life. While these reasons contribute to the market's enormous growth, the high cost of freeze-drying equipment may limit the market's expansion in the foreseeable term. Among freeze-dried food products, freeze-dried fruit has the biggest market share, followed by vegetables and beverages. The expansion of supermarkets and hypermarkets and online channels in countries like India and China is expected to enhance the sales of freeze-dried foods over the forecast period.
