(Food-Beverage-News.Com, October 03, 2018 ) Frozen food manufacturers are using technologies such as individual quick freezing (IQF) to improve yield and quality of frozen foods. The IQF method involves transferring the individual food items on a conveyor belt into a blast freezer that quickly freezes the items. With IQF method, every individual piece of food is frozen separately, as opposed to bulk or block freezing. This method boosts yield by 1.5-3% and results in better quality products with high nutritional value and less wastage. Examples of IQF foods include fruits such as blueberries, strawberries and peaches, and vegetables such as corn, peas and green beans.

Western Europe was the largest region in the frozen food market in 2017, accounting for almost two-fifth of the market share. This was due to the presence of a large number of frozen food companies catering to a large consumer base in Western European countries such as the UK, Germany, France, Spain and Italy.
According to The Business Research Company’s Consultant, Nitin Gianchandani, frozen food companies are investing in innovative packaging to offer better quality frozen food and more convenient packaging to carry and use frozen food.

Major frozen food manufacturers such as Nestle, Tyson Foods, ConAgra, Kraft Heinz and McCain Foods use innovative packaging for frozen foods.
