Retail/Wholesale

For more than three decades, Fragomen has served the largest companies in the retail and wholesale industry. As their enterprises grappled with increased globalization, we’ve helped their managers, supply chain professionals, and IT workers move across the world in ever-greater numbers.
The modern supply chain is one of the great inventions of our era; it is also exceptionally unforgiving. It requires the skilled, knowledgeable employees that maintain and improve it to move where they need to be with speed and efficiency.
Our crowning virtue is our outstanding success rates—all the more remarkable for the volume of work we handle for the industry.
Clients value us for our:
Stellar client service
Our clients require their professionals to make fast moves with a minimum of effort and disruption. They need their requests and queries answered just as quickly.
For Fragomen, client service is paramount. We work quickly and reliably and can structure our engagements around the unique service needs of each client.
Superb data and reporting
The sheer volume of cases we handle for companies in the retail and wholesale industry generates an enormous volume of data; we place this information at the disposal of our clients for advanced benchmarking, analytics and reporting.
Comprehensive employee training
With often lengthy government processing times, we surround our clients’ employees and HR personnel with highly accurate, useful information about their immigration processes and anticipated timeframes. We also offer “no update” updates when applications are subject to government backlogs.
Our partners organize and present town halls, webinars, 101s and other training programs that describe the immigration process in detail and keep employees up to date on the latest policy changes.
Compliance programs
More than fines, messy legal entanglements or investigations—the real threat from compliance failure is a tarnished reputation. Fragomen’s Government Strategies and Compliance Group helps clients successfully navigate investigations and related actions, including I-9 audits and ICE investigations. We work to limit or neutralize the effects of controversies that might otherwise bleed a retailer’s time and resources.
