Gross Margins of Food Products - Frozen Food Product Gross Profit Margins

Posted by: Ryan on: 27 May, 2009

I found this data online today - albeit a few years old - and found it to be quite interesting. It outlines the gross margins of the top 10 frozen categories. I’d imagine this is for MMR food products in general and not specific to the gourmet/specialty food industry:

1. Frozen Cakes & Pastries 40.2%

2. Frozen Breads & Rolls 36.1

3. Other Prepared Frozen Foods 35.6

4. Frozen Bagels 34.8

5. Fish & Other Seafood 34.6

6. Frozen Fish Sticks 32.8

7. Frozen Prepared Oriental Food 32.8

8. Frozen Prepared Sandwiches 32.7

9. Other Frozen Fish/Seafood 32.5

10. Frozen Pizza 32.2

(tie) Other Potato Products 32.2

(tie) Other Frozen Vegetables 32.2

I found this blog in a google search. I too found the information interesting and was wondering the source and if you located more recent data.

Shayne,

Thanks for the comment. I actually found it on AllBusiness.com here: http://www.allbusiness.com/frozen-food-age/41526-1.html

It is an old article, and I am yet to find anything more up-to-date. Let me know if you find anything newer, too.

Best,

Ryan
