Restraining Factors:

Low Shelf Life, Seasonality, and Performance Impede

Ice cream is a frozen dairy product. It will likely spoil quickly (usually within 2-3 months). However, it could spoil within days if it isn’t stored correctly. A product stored in a moist environment will often develop a foul odor and microorganisms. It can also pick up volatile flavorings from the storage environment, such as paint or ammonia. The product’s high storage cost is expected to limit the market growth. In summer, the highest demand for the product occurs. However, there is a tendency for market players to notice a sharp decline in product demand during winter and monsoon. This further hampers market growth.

Market Key Trends:

Ice cream companies are using different ingredients to meet the approval of food regulators in their respective regions. Key manufacturers are developing different formulations.
