Selling frozen food online? Natural and organic snacks are hot-selling. Why? It’s a mix of health-consciousness and an urge to snack away.

Consumers want healthy food.

  • So, when they buy frozen food, they often turn to natural and organic products.
  • These products contain only simple, wholesome ingredients. No artificial chemicals or dangerous additives!
  • Thus, consumers identify these foods as fresher and healthier than conventional food.

But their desire for healthy food doesn’t stop the snacking. They just want healthier frozen snacks! 

  • Over a third of U.S. households buy frozen snacks, per a Packaged Facts report.
  • Crucially, 2017 U.S. sales of natural and organic snacks reached over $220 million!

Why natural and organic snacks? Consumers use them to…

  • Entertain guests
  • Satisfy cravings while watching the big game on TV
  • Start or add to their lunch or dinner
  • Provide a quick meal— with just the snacks!

So, make sure you’re selling natural and organic frozen snacks in your online store!
