A. Eurobrand has been operating in Georgia since 2013. Our first branch was opened in the Tbilisi Sports Palace. This was the first large-format outlet hypermarket in Georgia, where well-known brands were offered at a discount of up to 70%.

Since its opening, Eurobrand has enjoyed great popularity among Georgian consumers, and for this reason the company’s management has set the goal of expanding the Eurobrand network. Our goal was to cover Tbilisi as much as possible in the first stage, and in 2014-2015 we added three large-format branches in the shopping centers of Gldani Mall, Karvasla and at Shandor Petefi Street.

We wanted Eurobrand to be in all major cities of Georgia and started opening branches in the regions. In 2016 we opened the first branch in Batumi, after which a large store was also opened in Kutaisi.
