What each one means
Milled in Georgia — the milling and packing were done inside the country. This is a fact about production: where the mill stands, who is answerable for the batch, and how quickly you can drive to the plant.
Grown in Georgia — the grain was harvested from Georgian fields. Given that self-sufficiency in wheat runs at around 19% (Geostat, 2025), this phrase applies to far from every batch.
Why it matters
- Documents. The origin of the grain is recorded in the specification. An inaccuracy in marketing sooner or later becomes a question from an inspector or from the customer.
- Reputation. A professional buyer knows the national statistics. A promise of «entirely Georgian wheat» on large volumes casts doubt on everything else you say.
- Price. Grain from the local harvest and imported grain are different positions in both price and availability.
How we put it
We say «milled in Georgia» and state the origin of the grain in the specification for every batch. That is duller than a patriotic slogan, but it survives any conversation with a buyer.
