Edeling is a premium nut processing company based in western Georgia, in the village of Ivandidi, Khoni. Drawing on this deep-rooted tradition, Edeling combines the rich agricultural heritage of the Caucasus with advanced Western European expertise in food technology. The result is a line of high-quality hazelnut products that meet the demands of international markets while staying true to local origins.

At the core of Edeling’s operations is an uncompromising commitment to quality. Through innovative yet gentle processing techniques, the company ensures that the natural appearance of the nuts is preserved while enhancing both their visual and sensory qualities. The entire value chain is managed in-house—from cleaning and optical sorting to roasting, chopping, grinding, sieving, and separating. This integrated approach guarantees consistency and traceability, meeting the highest standards required by the food industry.

The Edeling production facility began operating in September 2017, and by summer 2018, it achieved IFS and FSSC 22000 certifications—globally recognized standards for food safety and hygiene. This rapid certification reflects Edeling’s dedication to operational excellence and strict quality control across all processing stages.

Beyond technology and standards, Edeling is deeply committed to ethical practices. The company believes that safe and healthy working conditions directly influence product quality and customer satisfaction. Fairness, transparency, and sustainability are built into every aspect of the production process. Farmers, employees, and consumers are treated as essential and equal stakeholders in the company’s success. Edeling is currently in the process of obtaining UTZ certification, which will further affirm its commitment to responsible agriculture, efficient land use, and ethical sourcing.

By combining tradition, innovation, and responsibility, Edeling is setting a new benchmark for the hazelnut industry in Georgia—offering products that are not only superior in quality but also rooted in values that matter.
