Florida growers study California freezing method to store fruit in cooling plants for hotels and large food establishments. Frozen fruit, especially berries and citrus, is kept at ten to fifteen degrees above zero and later used for table service. Hotels with refrigeration can maintain subzero temps, extending freshness across seasons while reducing overhead. New York adopted this approach earlier to extend cannery shelf life and avoid peak-season labor.
