Commercial Refrigeration Market held USD 29.32 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.0% from 2020-2030. Growing demand for ready meals, bakery products, and processed food items increases demand for commercial equipment refrigeration industry. In addition, in an effort to reduce carbon footprints, the manufacturers are focused on developing commercial refrigeration equipment which consumes less energy. In addition, the U.S. Department of Energy and Environmental Protection Agency has implemented new rules and guidelines for industrial cooling with an emphasis on energy conservation and reducing its environmental effects. Hence, businesses are investing in the production of new refrigeration system with advanced technology to comply with the new regulations. Some of the manufacturers of commercial refrigeration industry are also redesigning the goods to meet new requirements. Furthermore, manufacturers of commercial refrigeration industry are sourcing new products and seeking new safety certifications to provide a sustainable product. There is an increase in commercial refrigeration market trends because of the supermarkets which are most energy-intensive retail businesses, with much of their electric charge on the refrigeration network searching for industrial refrigeration equipment that will help them save a lot on electricity usage. With advancements in technology, businesses are moving towards implementing sensor-equipped smart refrigeration system increasing the commercial refrigeration market share. These sensors help regulate the temperature and also provide monitoring of the temperature of refrigeration systems. Wireless low power solutions are also being built, reducing the cost of unreliable and manual refrigerator unit monitoring.
Market Dynamics and Factors:
Owing to the evolving commercial refrigeration market trends in food consumption, the advent of supermarkets and fast food chains, and increasing international trade, the global commercial refrigeration market is set to expand over the forecast period. Growing exports of seafood and processed food across the globe also provide the market with ample potential for growth. The demand for commercial refrigeration industry is driven largely by the dramatic increase in the number of supermarkets, hypermarkets, and large retail chains that have opened around the world.
