Enhancing the Resilience and Sustainability of the Frozen Food Supply Chain
A look at the intersection of carbon footprint, food safety, and quality.
From Clarence Birdseye's invention of the quick freezing method to modern-day freezing systems, frozen food companies have continually innovated and delivered a variety of products. Frozen foods have revolutionized the way we store and consume food, offering convenience, longer shelf life, reduced food waste, and global access to year-round nutrition. With U.S. frozen food sales exceeding US$74 billion in 2023 and a global market size of nearly US$300 billion, manufacturers meet market demands from industrial customers to everyday consumers across the world for high-quality and safe frozen foods. At the same time, frozen food production and logistics involve an energy-intense series of steps.
