Frozen Fruit & Juice Production in the US industry analysis

The Frozen Fruit and Juice Production industry has grown over the last few years despite restructuring its key product segments. This industry consists of two distinct product groups: frozen juice concentrates and frozen berries and other fruits. These two segments experienced significantly different growth trajectories over the past five years. The frozen fruit segment has benefited from rising health consciousness, new product development and expanding shelf space in freezer aisles. The rapidly growing popularity of ready-to-blend smoothie kits has helped drive demand for frozen berries and tropical fruit varieties from the household market. In contrast, the frozen juice concentrates segment has contended with a drop in per capita juice consumption and rising external competition from fresh juice producers. Over the past five years, industry revenue has been increasing at a CAGR of 3.0% and is expected to reach $4.3 billion in 2024, including a 0.2% boost in 2024.

Trends and Insights

  • Industry revenue has risen over the past five years, during which time frozen berries and other fruit segments performed significantly better than juice concentrates. The frozen fruit category has boomed due to favorable shifts in consumer trends, rising health consciousness and the rapidly growing popularity of ready-to-drink smoothie kits and cold-pressed juice.The Frozen Fruit and Juice Production industry is anticipated to grow at a moderate rate over the five years to 2028, with strong demand for frozen fruit varieties partially offset by continued weakness in the frozen juice segment. Industry performance will continue to be constrained by external competition from fresh fruit marketers.
  • The Frozen Fruit and Juice Production industry's product breakdown has shifted as frozen fruit juice concentrates, which have historically dominated the industry, account for far less revenue. This category's decline was primarily due to unfavorable shifts in consumer tastes and much stronger demand for products within the frozen fruit segment.Operators in the Frozen Fruit and Juice Production industry typically sell their products to consumer and commercial markets via intermediary distributors known as wholesalers. Though the majority of products are distributed through wholesalers, a small portion of industry goods are sent directly from producers to retailers.
  • The geographic spread of establishments within the Frozen Fruit and Juice Production industry is located close to sources of inputs, such as fruit farms, since fruit is best frozen immediately after harvest. Establishments are also located within a serviceable distance to large city markets and population centers.Climate and agricultural infrastructure are the most important factors in determining the location of industry establishments. The West is home to the greatest number of operators due to its proximity to fruit growers, followed by the Southeast contains many orange groves.
  • Despite ongoing consolidation activity, the Frozen Fruit and Juice Production industry has a low level of market share concentration, with the top four players expected to generate less than 10.0% of industry revenue in 2023. Industry concentration has increased over the past five years due to merger and acquisition activity.These acquisitions are mainly occurring among smaller operators that are aiming to expand their market reach and capitalize on economies of scale. Larger operators benefit from absorbing their operations and capitalizing on their niche product offerings.
