FC Kolkheti 1913, commonly referred to as Kolkheti Poti, is a Georgian football club based in Poti. The team competes in the Erovnuli Liga, the top division of Georgian football.
Being registered in 1913, Kolkheti is considered one of the oldest clubs in the South Caucasus. They are the two-time winners of the Soviet republican championship. After an independent Umaglesi Liga was formed in 1990, Kolkheti joined it as a 3rd-tier club and subsequently spent 17 successive seasons before worsening financial problems resulted in their first relegation. As the club's decline continued, it dropped into the third division by 2020. Kolkheti had two unsuccessful playoff campaigns in Liga 3 before securing two consecutive promotions.
Their first European tie was against Serbian club FK Zemun in 1996. The club plays its home games at Fazisi Stadium.
