Business Overview
First mover: Georgia's original brand, operating 5+ years of brand equity with no direct comparable competitor.
Revenue peaked at approximately $687K before moderating to around $632K during the following period. The decline was primarily attributable to a planned location transition, including the closure of the Isani branch and the opening of the new flagship location in Vake, rather than any reduction in underlying customer demand.
Monthly orders: 2,485 orders/month across platforms.
Customer loyalty: 67% repeat customer rate — exceptional for the delivery F&B category.
Platform ratings: Wolt 9.6/10 | Glovo 99/100 | Bolt 4.9/5 — among the highest-rated F&B brands in Tbilisi.
Revenue model: Recurring delivery-platform orders (Glovo, Wolt, Bolt) — 98% of revenue. Negotiated preferential commission rates with all three platforms.
Operations: Fully staffed and independently operational — team of 20 (operations manager, marketing & content manager, 16 cooks across 3 locations, accountant, HR representative)
Promoter experience: Co-founded by experienced professionals with backgrounds in global consumer brands, including leadership roles in CRM, marketing, and commercial management at internationally recognized companies. The founders bring deep expertise in marketing, operations, customer engagement, and scaling consumer-focused businesses.
Immediate growth upside: Reopening Isani and Old Tbilisi locations (deliberately closed) would add +25–30% revenue from day one, with no brand-building required.
Scalability: Franchise-ready model with identified expansion markets (Batumi, Kutaisi, and regionally: Armenia, Azerbaijan)
Products & Services Overview
Offers four core product lines: Poke Bowls, Sushi Burritos, Wok & Walk noodle boxes, and Healthy Salads — all built around customisable, nutritious ingredients with a 3–6 minute preparation time. The primary customer base is health-conscious professionals, gym-goers, and business people in Tbilisi aged 20–40 who order repeatedly through delivery apps (Glovo, Wolt, Bolt). 98% of orders are placed through these delivery platforms, with the remaining 2% through in-store takeaway and dine-in at the Vake flagship. Average order value is 33.6 GEL (~$12.54), above the Tbilisi market average of ~$9.30. The brand was first to market with poke bowls and sushi burritos in Georgia, establishing strong category ownership.
