How We Do It

Relocating to any country is always difficult, time consuming and mistakes can be expensive. The concept behind Georgia-Connect is to connect like minded people and network their resources.

  • We use local Georgian partner services as well as other South Africans who are contracted to us to make sure that the job is done right, on time and in the manner you expect.

  • Once we have identified what you want to do, what you require and what your budget is… we can work out a program with you - that best suits you.

  • Everything we do is “in-house” meaning the “Buck” stops here!

  • We take full responsibility and control of the services we provide.

  • For services we cannot or will not provide, we will recommend local affiliates who will be able to assist you.

As there are costs involved in research, evaluation, communication, travelling and legal liaison and documentation, we charge for our services up front - Many of our services are covered in the Business Club membership but certain specific tasks are billed and quoted individually.
