Growth Drivers and Challenges:
The emergence of e-commerce has resulted in considerable changes in the way people shop and purchase food products. The rising penetration of smartphones and the internet, quick access to emerging technologies, rising purchasing power, and convenience provided by online retail shopping platforms are among the key factors bolstering e-commerce. People increasingly prefer online retail platforms for purchasing frozen foods. According to the American Frozen Food Institute, online sales of frozen food products, including frozen snacks, increased by 75% in 2020. The online sales of food and beverages grew significantly during the COVID-19 outbreak due to the shutdown of brick-and-mortar stores and the imposition of several social restrictions by governments of various countries across the globe. With the rising penetration of e-commerce across multiple geographies, the manufacturers of frozen foods, such as Conagra Brands Inc, McCain Foods Ltd, and Aviko BV, are also enhancing their online presence by selling products through Amazon, Tesco, and other well-known e-commerce platforms. The growing adoption of e-commerce platforms is eliminating the dependency on offline retail stores. Thus, the rising sales of frozen snacks via e-commerce platforms are anticipated to create lucrative opportunities for the growth of the frozen sweet potato market size during the forecast period.
Cold chain logistics are essential for the streamlined functioning and proliferation of the frozen sweet potato businesses globally. However, several developing countries in both regions still lack cold chain infrastructure and are unable to provide safe frozen food products to consumers. Although frozen food products have a long shelf life, their wastage is inevitable if not stored at specified low temperatures during handling, transportation, and storage, resulting in contaminated products. Thus, the risk of frozen food wastage due to the lack of cold chain infrastructure in developing countries hampers the growth of the frozen sweet potato market.
