Econometric Modelling The next phase is market engineering, which involves analyzing the collected data, market breakdown, and forecasting. Macro & micro economic indicators, which are exogenous & endogenous in nature, are identified through causal & correlation analysis, which are further analyzed with the study variables to derive statistical inferences on the study market. A structural forecast model is developed in the process, and the most statistically reliable model is considered for forecasting. Methods such as Markov Chain and Monte Carlo simulation are used to estimate the dynamics between the sub-segments. Such attained data points are verified by the process of data triangulation, which includes expert opinions and primary sources, to validate the numbers and arrive at close estimates. Following data validation, the analysts begin to write the report. They garner insights from data and forecasts, which are then drawn to visualize the entire ecosystem in a single report. Expert Validation The final phase before the report writing is the expert validation, where the estimated and projected values through data triangulation are cross-validated through market experts or key people from the concerned industry. They can be senior researchers, Directors, CFOs or CEOs. The cross-validated estimates are finally approved by in-house experts.
3. MARKET OVERVIEW 3.1 MARKET DYNAMICS 3.1.1 DRIVERS Factors driving the global freeze-dried food market include: The expanding preserved food market Growing urbanization and increased number of working women The superior product quality and preservation offered by heat-sensitive food products The convenience and appeal offered to the customer The appealing feature of freeze-dried foods is their expanded shelf life and low weight of the food product. The freeze-drying process removes water from food. The removal of water prevents food spoilage by bacteria, which release chemicals that cause disease and make food taste bad. Additionally, naturally occurring enzymes in food can react with oxygen to cause spoilage; dehydration of food stops enzymes from denaturing food items. Freeze-dried food has the following advantages over other drying methods: Very long shelf life Lightweight Very low moisture content Reconstitutes quickly Best way to dry meat items Tastes better than dehydrated food Retains original shape, texture, and color after reconstitution
3.1.1.3 SUPERIOR PRODUCT QUALITY AND SHELF LIFE PROMOTING HEALTHY FOOD TRENDS Freeze dried is the best method to preserve functional food ingredients as it causes minimal loss of nutrients as compared to other high temperature dehydration methods. Food items such as fruits and vegetables are highly heat sensitive; their chemical structure, texture and taste change drastically and quickly at higher temperatures. Food preservation methods such as drying, boiling and smoking require high temperatures, which are not suitable for these quickly perishable food items. The chemical changes that occur in such preservation methods are irreversible and are not helpful in preserving the original taste or freshness. Freeze-drying preserves food by removing 98% of its water content without the introduction of heat. This prevents food from spoiling, while still maintaining most of its flavor, color, texture and nutritional value, when compared to most methods that introduce high temperature in the process of preservation. Moreover, pre-cooked food and meals are more heat sensitive than uncooked food. For example, potato fries find more benefits in being freeze-dried than raw potatoes themselves, which only require a cool dark place to ensure many months of storage. As a result, these types of food products are finding better quality preservation in freeze-drying than in any other method. Food manufactures can store highly perishable food for years by using freeze-drying. This is highly economical when these ingredients are seasonal or not easily available. Canned food can last up to 6 months to 1 years while dehydrated food up to 2-3 years, but freeze dried food can stay healthy even longer till 15-25 years. This high end shelf life promotes its usage during travelling and longtime storage. It preserves the phytochemicals and health promoting nutrients of food ingredients. Asia Pacific has growing appetite for muesli, granola and breakfast cereals. The usage of freeze dried fruits is growing in such products which is driving the market growth. During March 2013 to March 2014, USD 64 billion worth of snack were sold in this region. Freeze dried fruits holds significant market in healthy snacking where freeze dried fruits, yogurts are replacing conventional snacks. According to a global survey, health concern consumers are more preferring for fruits, nuts, seeds, and yogurt as a healthy snacks or breakfast.
Global Percentage of consumers who eat these snacks Gums/Ice cream 33% Nuts/seeds 41% Chips/Crisps Cheese 44% 46% Yogurt Bread/Sandwich Cookies/Biscuits Vegetables 50% 50% 51% 52% Fruits Chocolate 62% 64% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% (Detailed Analysis available in the full Report)
3.1.2 RESTRAINTS The major hindrances in the freeze-dried food market are high manufacturing and product costs and the availability of other drying techniques, such as spray-drying. Alternate techniques, such as spray drying, vacuum drying offer the similar quality in the preservation of food at lower cost. The high cost of technology has restricted its market growth, though the technology is being used for several years in food and pharmaceutical industries. 3.1.2.2 AVAILABILITY OF OTHER DRYING TECHNIQUES Dehydration techniques such as spray-drying offer stiff competition to the freeze-drying market when it comes to reconstituted liquid items such as instant powdered coffee and powdered soups. Spray-drying is a method of producing a dry powder from a liquid or slurry by rapidly drying it with a hot gas. Spraydrying is a process that involves high temperatures and high shear forces in comparison to freeze-drying, resulting in easy damage of certain food products. The benefits that spray-drying offers are a higher throughput and more economic process that is simpler, scalable, and can produce powders suitable for reconstitution into a liquid without milling or other secondary processing. It is mostly used for milk powder, instant coffee where the liquid product is converted into free flow powdered form. In the Instant coffee market spray dried coffee provides tough competition to freeze dried coffee as these are the prominent method used for instant coffee production. Another technique vacuum drying which has high demand in food industry offers good competition to freeze dried products. Vacuum drying as compared to freeze drying consumes less energy and capital cost which being more economical to the food manufacturers. It is mostly preferred for fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, sliced fruits, powders, and whole. This technique provides less harm to the nutrient content of foods such as vitamins, colors, and antioxidants as that of freeze dried technique.
