Frozen fruit and vegetable prices in the US have surged by almost 12% over the past year, while the cost of fresh produce has seen minimal increases.

Additionally, factors like the war in Ukraine, labor cost increases, and disruptions in the supply chain have contributed to the shortage of ingredients for frozen goods. These challenges are expected to impact farmers' profitability and result in higher prices for consumers.
