The Packaging Industry in Georgia

  • Economic factors, the availability or access to packaging materials, facilities, distribution networks, climatic conditions, and customer preferences all influence packaging solutions in Georgia.
  • It is commonly assumed that most packaging is done in the neighboring country of Turkey (or elsewhere) due to economies of scale, or that ready-made packaging materials are imported into Georgia.
  • This is however not the case as there are companies in Georgia that focus on packaging printing. Eco-friendly packaging should be prioritized, but it is typically more costly than PVC packaging. Georgia's government is attempting to strengthen the situation by prohibiting the use of PVC product bags. The result is increasing demand for alternative packaging solutions such as paper.
  • This boosting economy in Georgia will continue to drive demand forindustrial inkjet printer, printing equipment, printing parts, printing consumables such as inks, make ups and cleaning solutions.

  1. Availability - The local industry has limited capacity and some clients in Georgia require printers and ink promptly.
  2. High Product Cost - Given the domestic competition in Georgia, printers and the continuous ink supply are more expensive to buy domestically than on the world market.
  3. Product Quality - While most international suppliers have a good brand reputation and quality, some smaller domestic manufacturers in Georgia can have variant product quality.
