at average prices paid by institutions and reprocessors. As a general
rule, retail sales made up 65% of the total figure until about 1970.
Subsequent sales have shifted towards foodservice and currently
domestic sales of frozen products are approximately 31% retail to 69%
institutional by value, and 26% retail and 74% institutional by
volume. But much of the volume characterized as institutional actually
represents products initially frozen but sold in some other form.

U.S. IMPORTS OF FROZEN FOODS BY PRODUCT, 2003-2004
BY WEIGHT AND DOLLAR VOLUME
Important Note: All items on the following table are listed as frozen
by the U.S. Bureau of the Census, as opposed to those listed as "fresh
or frozen" products such as frog meat. The totals given here are
therefore the minimum amount of frozen food imported into the USA.
Under the present classification system, it cannot be determined how
much imported squid, for example, is frozen as opposed to dried,
salted or preserved in brine.
