Ministry of Economy: Robust growth and sustainability confirm Georgia’s economic resilience
“In 2025, Georgia achieved a remarkable 7.5% economic growth, with December’s growth standing at 7.2%. The positive trends and high growth clearly demonstrate that the Georgian economy has maintained its sustainability,” reports the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development.
According to the Ministry, December 2025 revealed an 11.0% increase in the turnover of VAT-registered enterprises compared to the same month the previous year, with 6,134 new businesses registered.
“The significant positive contributions to economic growth in 2025 came from sectors including information and communication, education, manufacturing, transport and warehousing, and financial and insurance activities.
This high growth was bolstered by favourable trends in foreign trade, with exports increasing by 11.2% to a record USD 7.3 billion. Domestic exports (excluding re-exports) grew by 12.5%, reaching USD 3.4 billion.
Tourism income also rose by 6.0% annually, reaching a record USD 4.7 billion.
In November 2025, rating agency Fitch improved its outlook for Georgia, highlighting the economy’s resilience to external shocks.
International financial institutions and rating agencies continue to recognise Georgia’s resilience, thanks to sound macroeconomic policies. The International Monetary Fund projects that Georgia will have the highest regional and European growth rate between 2026 and 2030, averaging 5.1%,” the report concludes.
