The Philippines frozen food market size was valued at USD 1.35 Billion in 2025. The industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.10% during the forecast period of 2026-2035 to reach a value of USD 3.23 Billion by 2035. The development of cold-chain infrastructure has been the major factor for the growth of the frozen food market in the Philippines. It is being facilitated and promoted through public and private sector investments.
Good quality storage and logistics are necessary for product quality to be maintained and for the shelf life to be extended. This is particularly important in a geographically fragmented country like the Philippines. Ongoing public and private efforts are expanding the Philippines frozen food market scope. Citing an instance, The Department of Agriculture, in January 2025, announced a PHP 3 billion regional cold-storage capacity enhancement programme (99 facilities) to reduce post-harvest losses of perishable goods.
The private sector engagement through the participation of the investors has been very vibrant and active as a result of their recognition of the long-term value of cold-storage assets. In June 2025, I Squared Capital bought a majority stake in Royale Cold Storage, a leading provider of temperature-controlled warehousing in the country.
Together, these changes are turning the country's cold-chain network into a modern one, thus, manufacturers, retailers and food-service operators are able to distribute frozen products widely in a cost-efficient manner, access the regions that are less-served and satisfy the increasing consumer demand for convenient, quality frozen foods, in turn, supporting the Philippines frozen food market development.

The major Philippines frozen food market players are focused on massive transformation of their products through diversification and innovation to keep up with the latest trend of consumer demands. Consequently, both San Miguel Foods and Century Pacific have been reiterating their commitment to nutrition and convenience while broadening their frozen meat, seafood, and ready-meal lines. Behind these moves is mainly a significantly improved packaging that contributes to product freshness and shelf-life extension due to a growing number of cold storage facilities.
Besides, they are overhauling their distribution and digital presence through collaboration with e-commerce and quick-commerce platforms. Many frozen food companies in Philippines are deploying data-driven strategies to improve inventory management and entice customers through promotional bundles. They also have arrangements with logistics providers to deliver products in an environment with the required temperature, thus, maintaining customers' confidence. In sum, these reforms indicate the industry's shift towards consumer convenience, sustainability, and accessibility.
