| Abstract: | The market for frozen ready meals is a mature one. Sales amounted to 189 200 tons valued at £681mn in 1999. The sector peaked in 1996 at 197 300 tons valued at £690mn. It declined during 1997 and 1998 for the first time in over a decade, chiefly as a result of competition from the chilled sector and a lack of new product innovation and promotion. However, 1999 saw a renewed focus on TV advertising from the major suppliers and a higher level of new product development, leading to an increase of 5% in volume and 6 % in value. |
