Frozen Fruit 101
Frozen fruit offers several advantages over non-frozen (fresh) fruit, particularly when it comes to consistency, shelf life, and reduced waste. While fresh fruit can lose nutrients during transport and spoil quickly, frozen fruit is picked at peak ripeness and flash-frozen to lock in flavor and nutrition. This process allows for year-round availability, lower shrink, and greater operational efficiency – making frozen fruit a smart, reliable choice for businesses that need dependable quality without compromise.
