Earlier Report Observations
The fresh strawberry market in Georgia expanded consistently from 2018 to 2023, with total volume more than tripling from 1 539 tons to 4 683 tons. The most pronounced increase occurred in 2021, when the market grew by over 50% to reach 2 858 tons.
This growth was primarily driven by a surge in imports, which rose from 407 tons in 2018 to 3 690 tons in 2023. Domestic production fluctuated between 1 000 tons and 1 600 tons, indicating that local supply did not keep pace with the rising market demand. Exports remained marginal throughout the period.
In 2024, import volumes eased to 2 958 tons but remained substantially higher than pre-2021 levels, suggesting sustained reliance on foreign strawberries to meet local consumption.
