What shops, chains and brands are there in Georgia?
Supermarkets, malls, pharmacies and local brands.
Short answer
Georgia has supermarket chains such as Carrefour, Spar, Nikora and Goodwill, pharmacy chains Aversi, PSP and GPC, and large malls in Tbilisi and Batumi with well-known international clothing and cosmetics brands. Local products always on the shelves include the Georgian mineral waters Borjomi, Nabeghlavi, Sairme and Likani.
Why
- Chain supermarkets stay open late, and many corner shops are open 24 hours.
- Pharmacies are everywhere in cities, and some medicines are prescription-only.
- International brands in Georgia are similar to Europe, though clothing is often pricier.
Details
Cosmetics are sold in specialist chains and pharmacies, with many European brands available. For everyday shopping, markets and small neighbourhood stores are cheapest.
Tip
Big sales come in January and late summer, when brand-name goods are noticeably cheaper.
What may differ
Tbilisi has a wider choice of brands than Batumi and other cities.
