Avocado Market Price in Georgia – 2024 Prices and Charts

Georgia is completely dependent on avocado imports for domestic consumption. Its subtropical climate along the coastal areas with mild, rainy winters is favorable for limited avocado production. The average rainfall ranges from 500mm to 1500mm per year and temperatures can be as low as 8°C and as high as 25°C. Avocado orchards can’t thrive in the interior areas as they are more arid due to a moderate continental climate.

Majority of avocados sold in Georgia are found in supermarkets. The biggest number of consumers in the country is found in the cities of Tbilisi, Kutaisi and Batumi. Smaller retail outlets, wholesale outlets and fresh produce markets around Georgia also trade in smaller quantities of avocados.

Here are the total values in import of avocados in Georgia between 2012 and 2023.

Avocado Price in Georgia per kg

The cost of a kilo of imported avocados in Georgia can be between 7 Georgian Lari (2.64 US Dollars) and 8 Georgian Lari (3.02 US Dollars). This is based on the average import price per kg. This wholesale price has gone as high as 8.35 Georgian Lari (3.15 US Dollars) in the recent past.

Retail prices of avocado per piece vary from seller to seller. Georgians can buy imported avocados for most of the year because they are sourced from a few nations. Market timing also determines the price range as late season avocados get a premium over early season avocados.

Avocado consumers in Georgia can also find either good discounts or higher prices depending on the time of shopping. Being a seasonal fruit, avocado prices are adjusted based on supply. Georgia imports a bulk of avocado during their summer months from June up to August. It brings in small amounts of avocado the rest of the year from other countries with some supply.

Avocado in Georgia

Georgia is gradually turning into a high-value avocado market. The country takes in major commercial varieties such as Hass and Fuerte. But it also brings in minor commercial green skin varieties. Many avocado consumers in Georgia prefer Hass avocados that are small in size because of their lower cost.

The logistical costs that come with importing avocados are a major factor in setting their retail prices. The type, quality and size of avocado is the other factor behind its selling price. Avocados exported to Georgia are packed in both 4kg and 10kg cartons.

Avocado imports have to first go through the Georgia Revenue Service. They are then tested using certain food safety protocols set by the National Food Agency (NFA). The government of Georgia sets the requirements for importers of horticultural produce like avocado through the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Agriculture.

Cartons of avocado must be labeled according to guidelines determined by the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development. Bilingual language, which includes Georgian, is required on the label. Labels must include the following information:

  • Name and address of producer
  • Brand or trademark
  • Country of origin
  • Type of avocado and grade
  • Storage instructions and temperature requirements
  • Gross weight and number of avocados per carton
  • Shelf life
  • Harvest year and packing date

Avocados imported in Georgia must undergo the pesticide maximum residue level (MRL) tests done by government laboratories. They should not exceed acceptable limits according to Codex. NFA is responsible for the control of pesticides residue on avocado imports.
