Tbilisi — Kutaisi — Batumi: planning supply across the country

Georgia's geography is compact, but the leg between the east and the coast changes the whole supply scheme.

The legs

Tbilisi to Kutaisi is about 230 km, Kutaisi to Batumi roughly 145 km, and Tbilisi to Batumi some 370 km by road. A trunk run between the far points is a full working day for a truck once loading and unloading are counted.

Why a single warehouse does not work

If the goods sit only in Tbilisi, any order from Batumi becomes a dedicated run: expensive at small volumes and slow when it is urgent. So the network is built on «trunk plus city delivery»: large trucks run between warehouses on a timetable, and a city van covers the last leg from the nearest warehouse.

What that gives the customer

  • City delivery within 24 hours instead of waiting for an intercity run.
  • The ability to order in small lots without paying for a dedicated trip.
  • An urgent top-up on the day of the request, if the goods are at the nearest warehouse.

How to use it

Agree a regular delivery window instead of one-off requests. A truck already running the route costs less than a truck called out for you. The same arrangement lowers your safety stock — and therefore the money frozen in the warehouse.

Send a request — we will open your account

A manager will get in touch during business hours, select the right position for your task and calculate the terms. Access to the online account opens once the request is confirmed.
