IQF Products Market Insights, 2025
The Individually Quick Frozen (IQF) products market is expanding as food processors, retailers, and consumers seek better alternatives to traditional freezing methods that often compromise quality. IQF preserves the texture, color, and nutritional value of fruits, vegetables, meats, seafood, and herbs by freezing each item separately, making them ideal for clean-label recipes, ready-to-eat meals, and foodservice applications. The rise in smoothie bowls, frozen meal kits, and convenience cooking in developed markets is driving adoption, while the foodservice sector increasingly relies on IQF for efficient portion control and inventory management. In Europe and the U.S., companies like Ardo, Simplot, and B&G Foods are investing in IQF innovations such as flash-steam blanching and customized blends. The appeal of IQF extends to the growing vegan and flexitarian demographics, who prefer frozen plant-based ingredients that retain their fresh attributes. Supply chain resilience post-COVID has further reinforced IQF’s value in minimizing food waste and ensuring year-round ingredient availability.
