Freeze-dried foods are dehydrated fruits and vegetables in which the water content of the item is removed while the texture, smell, and contents stay the same. The water content in food is dried during the dehydration process, referred to as lyophilization. The food becomes lighter in weight and smaller in size due to this procedure, making it easier to store and transport. Food that has been freeze dried has a long shelf life, with some foods surviving as long as 20 years. Food preservation via freeze-drying is a relatively new technique. It involves freezing the food then utilizing a vacuum chamber to remove nearly all moisture before sealing it in an airtight container. Foods that have been freeze-dried can be easily transported at room temperature, preserved for a long time, and consumed with minimal preparation. 

Market Dynamics

Customers are increasingly turning to freeze-dried meals as their need for higher-quality food items grows, as well as their knowledge of hygiene issues. Furthermore, the worldwide freeze-dried food market is being driven by the developing food & beverage market, demand for seasonal fruits & vegetables throughout the year, growing modernization, an increase in the number of working couples, and the need for convenient superior quality food items. Another element propelling the industry is the ease with which freeze-dried food may be defrosted, making it easier to transport and cook in a shorter amount of time. The availability of low-cost substitute drying techniques, such as fluid bed drying, which dries the food at a lower cost than freeze-drying, is one of the freeze-dried food market's key disadvantages.
