U.S. Frozen Food Market
Description
Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Product (Frozen Meals, Meat/Poultry/Seafood, Desserts, Fruits & Vegetables, Snacks, Baked Goods), By Distribution Channel, By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2026 - 2033
U.S. Frozen Food Market Summary
The U.S. frozen food market size was estimated at USD 89.94 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 163.25 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 7.7% from 2026 to 2033. The rise in dual-income households and busier lifestyles in the U.S. has fueled the demand for frozen, ready-to-eat, and ready-to-cook meals, making them a popular choice among consumers who seek quick, nutritious, and easy meal solutions.
The rising prevalence of gluten-free diets among consumers, driven by the various health benefits offered by these products, will boost the market for gluten-free frozen ready meals. For instance, in March 2022, Halo Top, an ice cream brand from Wells Enterprises, Inc., launched a line of fruity frozen desserts with new sorbet pints. These products are available in three flavors: raspberry, mango, and strawberry. In addition, these products are made from real fruits, with less sugar & calories, and are vegan-certified and gluten-free. A rise in the trend of healthy eating among buyers will further drive the market growth.
The growing penetration of online platforms is one of the major market strategies of frozen food companies. For instance, in September 2023, Yelloh, formerly known as Schwan’s Home Delivery, launched a new website and mobile app to enhance customer experience in ordering frozen meals and treats. This transformation marks a significant step in the company's evolution, maintaining its commitment to delivering high-quality frozen foods that customers have enjoyed for over 70 years. Customers can retain their existing accounts but will need to sign in on the new platform.
