The frozen products market share has gained remarkable popularity owing to their longer shelf life. These products usually can last for five to eight months in the freezer. The growing demand for flavorsome heat-and-eat products encourages the vendors to launch frozen meat substitutes in the U.S. market. Moreover, various factors contributing to the growth of refrigerated plant based food are meat shortage and concerns regarding the coronavirus outbreak in the meat processing facilities. In Western America, there is increasing acceptance of vegetarian eating habits in fitness aware clients. Growing concerns about Greenhouse Gas (GHG), provided by the meat business and animal well-being procedures, are expected to boost the demand for plant-based meat foodstuffs.”
