The global frozen food packaging market was valued at USD 47.94 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach approximately USD 79.59 billion by 2034. This growth represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2% from 2024 to 2034.

The rapid growth of the global frozen food packaging market can be attributed to several key factors.

In addition, the Asia Pacific region has seen a significant rise in frozen food consumption, which has driven the expansion of the packaging market. Furthermore, the introduction of innovative refrigerator displays in supermarkets has played a crucial role in attracting consumers to frozen food, increasing the demand for packaging solutions that support these products.
