In April 2025, Georgia's inflation rate remained relatively stable, with a slight monthly increase of 0.2% and an annual rate of 3.4%. The consumer basket, which now includes 305 goods and services, reflects these modest changes.

However, certain food items experienced significant price hikes. Lemons saw the most substantial increase, with prices rising by 90% compared to the previous year. Cabbage followed closely with a 61% increase, and eggplant prices rose by 52%. Other notable increases included cucumbers at 44% and kiwis at 35%.

These sharp price increases in specific food categories have contributed to the overall inflation, particularly within the food and non-alcoholic beverages sector. The rise in vegetable prices, including the significant increases in lemons, cabbage, and eggplant, has been a key factor in the annual inflation rate of 3.4% .

While the overall inflation rate remains moderate, the sharp increases in certain food prices highlight ongoing challenges in the agricultural sector, possibly due to seasonal factors, climatic conditions, and supply chain disruptions. These developments may continue to impact consumers' purchasing power and the cost of living in Georgia.
