Expansion of Supermarkets to Drive the Flake Ice Machine Market Growth

The flake ice machine market was valued at US$ 1.77 billion in 2017 and is expected to grow at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2% from 2018 to 2026. One of the most important advantages of flake ice is that being thin and does not damage the delicate fish skin. With excellent characteristics, flake ice has wide applications in the processing industries. Moreover, the seafood industry is one of the major users of flake ice. Furthermore, flake ice also finds application in dye making and plays a vital role in concrete. It helps to avoid any cracks in the concrete. One of the most prominent factors aiding the flake ice machine market’s growth is the significant growth of supermarkets and hypermarkets across the world. Countries such as China and India have remained at the forefront in this context, with the high growth of such infrastructure in recent years. Consumers increasingly prefer modern trade formats like supermarkets and hypermarkets, which are stepping up to fulfill the needs of consumers.

Market Synopsis

Fishery and Aquatic Food Processing Industry to Remain an Important Application Field for Flake Ice

Fishery and aquatic food processing stood as the largest segment in terms of value in 2017. Flake ice is extensively used in the fishery and aquatic food processing industries. Flake ice is one of the best methods for cooling seafood products quickly in order to preserve peak freshness. Moreover, the fact that flake ice is harmless, portable, and cheap is another important factor aiding its adoption in the fishery and aquatic food processing industries. Flake ice helps in keeping the fish cold, moist, and glossy, and at the same time, proves beneficial to prevent dehydration, which is often common in cases of other methods of cooling, such as refrigerated storage without ice.

Product Innovation Will Remain an Important Strategy for Manufacturers to Gain a Competitive Advantage

The flake ice machine market is highly competitive, with the presence of both domestic and international players. Product quality, brand recognition, availability, performance, product innovation, and product pricing are some of the major criteria on which the market players usually compete. In order to get a competitive advantage, the players often invest in product innovation. For instance, recently, MAJA, a German-based manufacturer of flake ice machines, introduced a “hybrid” machine that facilitates end users, such as supermarkets, to initially use an HFC refrigerant but ultimately transit to CO2. The new product is specially targeted at customers who are not able to invest in CO2 refrigeration racks at the moment but can switch over in the coming years.

Asia Pacific to Remain the Most Attractive Market for Investment during the Forecast Period

The global flake ice machine market was dominated by Asia Pacific, which accounted for more than 30% of the overall market value in 2017. The flake ice machine market in the region is driven by the rapid expansion of supermarkets and hypermarkets in the region. Flake ice often finds application in these retail outlets to store and display fish and seafood. In recent years, there has been a significant rise in the number of supermarkets and hypermarkets in Asia-Pacific. China stood as the largest market in the region in 2017, accounting for nearly 30% of the regional value.
