Increasing Demand for Convenience and Ready-to-Cook Foods
Consumers are looking for hassle-free cooking solutions that fit into their busy schedules. Homemakers, along with restaurants and food service providers, find frozen vegetables optimal because they arrive washed and cut already. Ready-to-eat meal providers and quick-service restaurants (QSRs) alongside cloud kitchens drove up the total demand. Technological improvements in freezing methods deliver both better-tasting and more nutritious foods; thus, consumers feel more inclined toward frozen meal substitutions. The expansion of organized retail stores and online grocery platforms has further boosted the availability of frozen vegetables across India, which is creating a positive India frozen vegetables market outlook. For instance, in March 2024, BigBasket, a large online grocery store, teamed up with chef and businessman Sanjeev Kapoor to introduce the frozen food line Precia. Precia will include three product categories: frozen appetizers like momos and french fries, frozen sweets like purani dilli rabdi and gajar ka halwa; and frozen veggies like green peas and mixed vegetables.
Advancements in Cold Storage and Freezing Technologies
Innovations in cold chain logistics, freezing techniques, and packaging have significantly improved the quality, shelf life, and nutritional value of frozen vegetables. Technologies such as individual quick freezing (IQF) and vacuum-sealed packaging help retain the freshness and texture of vegetables, making them comparable to fresh produce. Government initiatives and private investments in cold storage infrastructure and refrigeration technology are further strengthening the supply chain. These advancements ensure better distribution, reduced food wastage, and increased consumer confidence in frozen vegetables, which is fueling the India frozen vegetables market share. For instance, in February 2025, ITC finalized arrangements to acquire Prasuma, a prominent participant in India's frozen, chilled, and ready-to-cook food markets. One of the frozen food brands with the quickest rate of growth in India is Prasuma, which is driven by innovation. Lisa Suwal and Siddhant Wangdi, a husband-and-wife team, have expanded their family business and developed a distinctive product line to redefine the frozen food market in India and elevate frozen food above fresh. New and improved freezing technology makes it possible for frozen dishes to keep their freshness longer than meals that are eaten right away after cooking. Prasuma uses state-of-the-art freezing technology to maintain freshness, guaranteeing that every bite has unparalleled flavor and quality.
