Tbilisi runs on a handful of strong industries. If you’re job-hunting or weighing a move, here’s where the opportunities (and the big-name employers) are.
Top industries & employers
Tourism & Hospitality
Adjara Group (Rooms/Stamba/Fabrika), Radisson, Biltmore, Marriott
Tourism is a pillar of the economy; Tbilisi's boutique-hotel and wine-tourism scene is booming, with strong F&B, guiding and management opportunities.
IT & Tech / Remote Work
EPAM, Exadel, Pulsar AI, Theneo, plus thousands of remote freelancers
Georgia courts tech actively — a 2025 IT residence permit and the Virtual Zone (0% corporate tax on exported IT) make it a magnet for developers and remote-first companies.
Banking & Finance
TBC Bank, Bank of Georgia, Credo Bank, Liberty Bank
Two dominant banks (TBC, Bank of Georgia) are among the region's most digitally advanced and are London-listed; fintech and crypto-adjacent services are growing.
Wine & Agriculture
Schuchmann, Tbilvino, Teliani Valley, hundreds of family wineries
The 8,000-year-old qvevri winemaking tradition (UNESCO-listed) drives exports and a fast-growing natural-wine tourism niche centred on Kakheti, two hours east.
Logistics & Transit
Anaklia/Poti port operators, BP (BTC pipeline), freight forwarders
Georgia's position on the Middle Corridor between Europe and Central Asia/China makes transit, energy and logistics strategically central.
BPO & Shared Services
Evolution, Majorel, EVEX-adjacent service centres
Low costs and a multilingual (English/Russian) workforce draw call-centre and shared-service operations, a common entry point for foreign residents.
