Quick answer
GeraFarm connects Georgian producers (Kakheti wine, Imereti fruit, Kartli dairy, Svaneti highland goods) with Tbilisi, Batumi, Kutaisi, Gori and Mtskheta buyers. National Food Agency (NFA)-compliant listings, ₾ pricing, TBC Pay + Bank of Georgia Pay settlement. Georgia the country — საქართველო, capital Tbilisi, not the US state.
Why Georgia's agriculture needs a digital spine
Georgia produces world-class wine (8,000-year tradition, UNESCO-listed qvevri method), hazelnuts, matsoni, tkemali, honey, fruit (Kakheti apples, Imereti peaches), and leafy greens. Distribution is fragmented — most producers sell through intermediaries who capture 30–50% of margin. GeraFarm is a direct-to-retail and direct-to-restaurant marketplace that lets producers from a village near Telavi, Kutaisi or Ozurgeti sell straight to Tbilisi buyers.
National Food Agency (NFA) and Revenue Service rules
- NFA registration (nfa.gov.ge): Every food producer must register with the National Food Agency. GeraFarm verifies the NFA registration at onboarding.
- Wine labelling: Kakheti PDO wines (Mukuzani, Kindzmarauli, Tsinandali, Gurjaani) follow EU-equivalent geographic indication rules.
- Revenue Service (rs.ge): Small-scale farmers on agri-status pay reduced tax; individual entrepreneurs use small-business 1% turnover tax.
- Cold-chain: Dairy and meat shipments through GeraFarm's partner logistics use temperature-logged vans compliant with NFA cold-chain rules.

How GeraFarm differs from Vendoo and MyMarket.ge
Vendoo and MyMarket.ge allow agricultural classifieds but have no cold-chain, no NFA-verified producer tags, no traceability. GeraFarm is purpose-built for agri: batch-level traceability, lot numbers, farm GPS coordinates, photo verification of every shipment, plus bulk-order workflows for restaurants in Tbilisi's Vake and Vera districts.
Georgian language note
Kartuli (ქართული) is the default producer UI. English and Russian for buyers. ქართულ ენაზე თარგმანი მოდის for long-form marketing.
