The Commercial Refrigeration Equipment Market is driven by rising number of food retail chains and food services industry

 

Commercial refrigeration equipment refers to heavy-duty refrigeration systems and devices used across food retail outlets and food services industry for storage and display of foods and beverages at recommended temperatures. Commercial refrigerators and freezers are designed to store large quantities of perishables and other food products at precise temperatures for longer shelf life. They find widespread adoption across supermarkets, convenience stores, food processing facilities, restaurants, and other food retail and foodservice establishments. Adoption of commercial refrigeration equipment allows businesses to effectively showcase food offerings, while ensuring safety and quality throughout the supply chain. They help minimize food wastage and expedite inventory management. Growing organized retail, quick service restaurants, and increasing demand for convenience and packaged foods has fueled demand for commercial refrigeration globally.

The global Commercial Refrigeration Equipment Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 53.38 Bn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 4.7% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

Market key trends:

One of the key trends prevailing in the commercial refrigeration equipment market is rising adoption of eco-friendly refrigerants. Currently, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are widely used as refrigerants in commercial refrigeration units owing to their non-flammability and non-toxicity. However, HFCs have high global warming potential which is prompting regulatory push for transition to more environment-friendly alternatives such as hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs) and natural refrigerants like ammonia, carbon dioxide, and hydrocarbons. Adoption of natural refrigerants is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period, driven by stringent regulations on F-gas in many countries and sustainability initiatives of end-use industries. Manufacturers are increasingly focusing on green product innovation to capitalize on this trend.
