Global International

What Global International does

Global International, legally Relocation Management Spain, S.L., is a privately held Spanish international moving and relocation services provider founded in 1985 and headquartered in Getafe (Madrid). The company serves three primary customer segments: individual expats and families relocating into or out of Spain, corporate and diplomatic entities managing employee relocations (including the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs as a flagship government client), and expat employees on assignment needing destination services. Its offering spans four integrated product lines: door-to-door international moving (sea/air/road transport, customs clearance, shipping insurance), comprehensive relocation services (home search, temporary housing, furniture rental, tenancy management, vehicle registration, intercultural training, school search, VIP concierge), immigration services (residence and work permits, consular services, compliance), and home search/international real estate sourcing.

The company's technology stack centers on Moveware, a proprietary logistics and tracking system that enables clients to monitor shipments in real time and whose review module is audited by EY, and Matt Technology, an online rating engine providing agents 24/7 access to origin and destination rates for all of Spain. Operational differentiators include a proprietary containerized storage system and in-house carpentry producing custom wooden crates, supported by an owned fleet and approximately 2,000 m2 of facilities across Madrid and Barcelona with FIDI FAIM-compliant fire protection. Distribution is hybrid: direct sales offices in Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Malaga, and Alicante serve enterprise and individual clients, while a worldwide agent network accesses Spanish rates via the MoverSPOE platform for international moves.

Global International monetizes exclusively through quote-based professional service fees per move or relocation package; no standard pricing is published. It is FIDI FAIM 3.1 Top Performer accredited (EY-audited, renewed for 2024-2027), a Premium EuRA member, and claims 5-star Google Spain and 9.7/10 MoveAide ratings. The company has no disclosed external funding, no subsidiaries, no M&A activity, and no recorded leadership changes; facility expansion has been the primary strategic lever, with the Madrid hub established in 2008 and Barcelona inaugurated in 2016.
