A portable mini fridge is a compact refrigerator that can be moved and carried around conveniently. It is available in various shapes, sizes and capacities and requires minimal power to operate. Mini fridges consist of a compact compressor, heat-exchanging pipes coiled outside the unit, expansion valves and refrigerant to maintain cold temperatures inside the fridge. They are usually mounted in recreational vehicles (RVs), mobile and small homes to keep the products fresh for long durations while traveling. They are also utilized for storing cosmetics and pharmaceutical drugs. As a result, portable mini fridges are widely used in vanity vans, marine cruises, leisure yachts, passenger and commercial vehicles and medical transport units.
The increasing demand for cold storage systems in luxury vehicles across the globe is among the key factors driving the growth of the market. Moreover, the shifting consumer preference for mobile homes as an affordable alternative for first-time homeowners and frequent travelers is providing a thrust to the market growth.
