The saudi arabia IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) vegetables market is thriving due to the convenience and health benefits these products offer. As urbanization and busy lifestyles become more common, consumers seek easy-to-prepare and nutritious meal options. IQF vegetables meet this demand, driving market expansion.
While the demand for convenience foods is rising, the IQF vegetables market encounters obstacles in Saudi Arabia.
