What Global Recruiting Agency does

Global Recruiting Agency (GRA) is a Government-approved manpower recruitment agency in Bangladesh, established in 2016 as a concern of the Daffodil Family conglomerate. It is registered and licensed by the Ministry of Expatriates' Welfare and Overseas Employment, holds BAIRA enlistment, and maintains a JITCO license for operations into Japan. The company matches skilled, semi-skilled, and unskilled Bangladeshi job seekers with international employers, with stated geographic reach to countries across Asia and the Middle East.

GRA's service portfolio covers the full recruitment lifecycle: candidate sourcing and screening, interview coordination, documentation processing, visa assistance, ticketing via partner travel agencies, pre-departure orientation, and post-deployment follow-up. The agency also offers staffing services for short-term and full-time placements and runs an affiliated portfolio of training institutes (BSDI, DJIT, DIIT, DPI, DIPTI, DIL) that provide professional development and serve as candidate pipelines. Operationally, GRA runs a Dhaka headquarters (Panthapath, Dhaka-1205) and a Tokyo regional office (Shibuya-ku), enabling in-country presence on both the source and Japan destination sides of the placement flow.

GRA operates a B2B transaction-fee model, charging employers for sourcing, screening, and placing candidates, with visa and ticketing services as bundled components. Go-to-market is direct enterprise sales to international employers, supplemented by government and BAIRA channels for legitimacy and demand sourcing. The company is privately held within the Daffodil Family with no disclosed institutional funding or public listing.

Scale indicators2 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Randstad: One of the world's largest staffing and HR services firms, with significant presence in Asia-Pacific. Provides a relevant reference point for international staffing economics, fee structures, and the economics of multi-country recruitment.
• Adecco Group: Global leader in staffing and workforce solutions operating across permanent placement, temporary staffing, and career transition. Comparable as a public-market benchmark for valuation and operating leverage in the international recruitment industry.
• ManpowerGroup: Global staffing and workforce solutions leader with broad international placement capabilities. Comparable as a benchmark for scale and professional staffing economics, though operating in a much larger and more diversified footprint than GRA.
• Recruit Holdings: Japanese parent of Indeed and a major global HR services group, deeply relevant to GRA's Japan operations. Comparable for the Japan market overlap and as a reference for monetization of cross-border recruitment into Japan.

Emerging players

• Skill-Jobs: Bangladesh-based digital job-matching platform (and fellow Daffodil Family concern) that uses technology to connect Bangladeshi workers with employers. Comparable as a channel for the same worker pool and an emerging threat to traditional agencies like GRA.

Direct peers

• TTM International: One of Bangladesh's largest and most established government-approved overseas recruitment agencies, sending Bangladeshi workers primarily to Saudi Arabia and the Gulf. Directly comparable to GRA in business model, customer segment, regulatory license, and destination markets.
• ASA International Recruiting Agency: Licensed Bangladeshi international recruiting agency placing workers in Gulf and Asian markets. Directly comparable as a similarly licensed, similarly sized full-service agency competing for the same employer clients and candidate pool.
• Bay Group: Bangladesh-based conglomerate with a large overseas recruitment arm placing workers in the Middle East and Southeast Asia. Comparable to GRA as a similarly structured diversified group with a licensed international recruitment subsidiary.
• Al-Madinah Overseas Recruiting Agency: Bangladesh-based government-approved recruiting agency specializing in Saudi Arabia and Middle East placements. Closely mirrors GRA's operating model, regulatory positioning, and skilled/semi-skilled worker focus.
• Pro-Active Overseas Employment Services: Bangladesh-headquartered overseas employment agency with government licensing for multiple destination countries. Operates the same end-to-end recruitment model (sourcing, visa, ticketing, deployment) as GRA.
