India's Amalgam Frozen Foods recently opened its first buffet-style frozen foods store for convenience-oriented shoppers. While most grocery stores have a frozen foods section, it can be hard for shoppers to find exactly what they are looking for. This store lays out its frozen foods in easily accessible coolers to improve the frozen foods shopping experience.
The new buffet-style frozen food store was opened in Kochi's Panampilly Nagar neighborhood. The store exclusively sells frozen foods such as seafood, Indian breads, curries and frozen meats. Part of the reasoning behind the frozen-only store was to prevent a loss of quality that comes from transporting frozen items. The store's unique layout also makes it easier and more convenient for shoppers to find the specialty frozen foods they are looking for.
With more than 100 different products to choose from, the store provides consumers with a high-quality outlet for purchasing frozen goods.
