After more than 20 years of development in China, quick-frozen fruits and vegetables have exploded in recent years. Reasons: First, the demand for quick-frozen fruits and vegetables in the B-end catering industry has increased. For example, the rapid development of the prepared vegetable industry makes catering companies and food production companies need a large amount of quick-frozen fruits and vegetables. Prefabricated dishes can better solve the problems of difficult recruitment and expensive labor for catering companies, so it has ushered in rapid development in the B-end market.
Chain catering companies and online B2B and B2C platforms are rapidly increasing the number of quick-frozen fruits and vegetables ordered, especially quick-frozen fruit and vegetable products such as broccoli, betel nut taro, frozen cabbage cores, bamboo shoots, corn kernels, and pea kernels are very popular on the B side.
Second, the deep-processing manufacturers of quick-frozen food have a large demand for quick-frozen fruits and vegetables, which further boosts the development of the industry. Compared with seasonal vegetables, quick-frozen fruits and vegetables have obvious advantages, and can better solve the seasonal problems of vegetable production. The price and quality are more stable, and the cost is lower, which is very important for some quick-frozen food manufacturers.
The third is that the quick-freezing effect of liquid nitrogen quick-freezing machines for fruits and vegetables is good and the product quality is high. For example, Dejieli tunnel-type liquid nitrogen quick-freezing machine can quickly freeze betel nut taro, which can extend the storage period and basically reach the annual supply market of fresh mother taro. In order to extend the market supply, it can also be processed into various kinds of taro flour, dried taro cubes, quick-frozen taro paste, and taro cubes, which can be used as high-quality raw materials for making ice cream, high-grade cakes, and taro cakes. In addition to quick-frozen betel nut taro, it can also be applied to fruit and vegetable products such as cucumbers, green beans, strawberries, banana slices, betel nuts and persimmons. Most of the quick-frozen fruits and vegetables have preserved their nutrition and commodity value.
Fourth, C-end consumers have increased demand for quick-frozen fruits and vegetables. On some e-commerce platforms, sales of quick-frozen fruits and vegetables targeting C-end consumers have grown significantly. It can be seen from the consumer market of quick-frozen fruits and vegetables in foreign markets that there is still a lot of room for improvement in the scale of the domestic market.
