Our History
Founded in 2014 by Ilia Geferidze and his wife, Sofia Khoistashvili, Gepherrini’s began with a mission to
create distinctive leather bags that reflect the heritage of Georgia. After noticing a gap in the local market, they established their first workshop in Tbilisi, overcoming challenges to craft bags that blend quality, design, and affordability.
Over the past 20 years, the brand has expanded to 11 countries, opened four branches in Georgia, and
continuously refined their designs by staying closely connected to their customers. Gepherrini’s meticulous attention to detail and commitment to quality have earned them a reputation for excellence, backed by their quality guarantee. This dedication to craftsmanship has also garnered international recognition, including multiple awards for their innovative and distinctive designs.
Gepherrini is a proud participant of the United Nations Sustainable Development Principles’ Gender Equality Acceleration Program. The brand’s recruitment program prioritizes motivation over experience, empowering Georgian women professionally and financially.
Today, 70% of GEPHERRINI’s 100 employees are women. With 42 sales points worldwide, GEPHERRINI continues to grow, crafting accessories that inspire confidence and make wearers feel truly special.
