Earlier Report Observations

The cereal germ market in Georgia experienced notable shifts between 2018 and 2023. In 2018, a state program actively promoting micro and small entrepreneurship supported business development in the agri-food sector, including grain processing and market entry, contributing to an initial market volume of 13 769 t. After a slight contraction to 13 313 t in 2019, the market entered a growth phase, reaching 17 848 t in 2021.

This expansion was followed by a sharp downturn, with the market shrinking by 35% to 11 680 t in 2022 and further declining to 10 985 t in 2023.

In 2024, several regulatory measures were introduced, including a technical regulation on food information to consumers with labeling and packaging requirements, mandatory certification of planting material for private nurseries to enhance quality control, and strengthened market surveillance rules for product safety. Additionally, changes in the energy market aimed at increasing independence and sustainability, along with restrictions on imports of older vehicles affecting logistics costs, are poised to influence the grain processing sector, though their impact on market volume is not yet reflected in the data.
