We consider a nearest-neighbor inhomogeneous p-adic Potts (with q≥2 spin values) model on the Cayley tree of order k≥1. The inhomogeneity means that the interaction Jxy couplings depend on nearest-neighbors points x, y of the Cayley tree. We study (p-adic) Gibbs measures of the model. We show that (i) if q∉pℕ then there is unique Gibbs measure for any k≥1 and ∀ Jxy with | Jxy |< p-1/(p -1). (ii) For q∈p ℕ, p≥3 one can choose Jxy and k≥1 such that there exist at least two Gibbs measures which are translation-invariant.
