Classification of frozen food: divided into chilled food and frozen food.

According to different kinds of raw materials, it can be divided into frozen agricultural products, frozen aquatic products, frozen meat products and frozen convenience foods.

Advantages of frozen food: frozen food is easy to preserve and widely used in the production, transportation and storage of perishable foods such as meat, poultry, aquatic products, milk, eggs, vegetables and fruits; Nutrition, convenience, hygiene and economy; The market demand is large, which occupies an important position in developed countries and develops rapidly in developing countries.

Development prospect of frozen food;

? Frozen food has also become an indispensable part of the daily diet of urban consumers in China, and has increasingly become one of the mainstream foods of urban families. The refrigeration industry has also developed vigorously in production and processing technology, product types and product structure.

1. The pace of urban life is accelerating, and the demand for frozen food is increasing.

The growth of consumer demand is the basis of market expansion.

Unmarried young people are heavy consumers of frozen food, while married white-collar workers and gold collars are another important consumer group.

With the increasing employment pressure, young people have fewer and fewer opportunities to cook at home, and instant foods such as quick-frozen foods have become essential foods for many young people.

Thousands of young people have flooded into cities from rural areas, and the process of urbanization in China has been accelerating, expanding the consumer groups of frozen food.

Many young people are getting older and older, which prolongs the consumption cycle of frozen food.

The characteristics of quick-frozen food, such as convenience and sanitation, meet the acceleration of urban life rhythm, and the market capacity naturally increases greatly.

2. Industrial clusters realize production scale and standardization.

After more than ten years of rapid development, with the continuous expansion of the production capacity of leading enterprises, China's frozen food production has achieved industrialization, scale and standardization.

Because the manufacturing threshold is not high, many small and medium-sized enterprises have set foot in frozen food.

The leading enterprises in the cluster have promoted the development of small and medium-sized frozen food enterprises.

The increasing number of production enterprises has promoted the expansion of frozen food consumption.

More importantly, with the rising cost of raw materials and labor, industrial clusters have relative cost advantages in raw material procurement and personnel salary.
