About Mzareuli
Mzareuli — the word means "cook" in Georgian — has produced traditional dishes of Georgian and European cooking in semi-prepared form since 2003. The company presents it as the counterweight to a good home-cooked meal rather than a substitute for it, and the range is exactly the food a Georgian household would otherwise spend an afternoon folding: khinkali, pelmeni, vareniki, cutlets and blini among others. It is made in Nikora's ISO-standard plant and sold through the group's own supermarkets as well as other chains.

About the owner: Nikora
Nikora is a privately held company headquartered in Tbilisi, Georgia, founded in 1998. Brandtree records 4 brands under its control.
Nikora is a Georgian meat processor and retailer founded in 1998, and since then, on its own account, the leader among Georgian meat-product manufacturers. It grew by widening its range in stages while installing European production equipment to simplify manufacturing and raise quality, and in 2025 opened an entirely new plant which it describes as the first of its standard in the South Caucasus. The production company employs around five hundred people and holds a series of international quality standards built up over the years. Alongside the factories it runs the Nikora Supermarket chain, which carries its own meat, semi-prepared and prepared lines next to imported European groceries, making it both the maker and the shopkeeper for most of what it sells. Its head office is on Mrevlishvili Street in Tbilisi.
