The team behind Progedo

Relocation. Immigration. Everything from a single source – since 1995.

When a new skilled worker arrives from abroad, the real work only begins after the contract is signed. Finding accommodation, dealing with authorities, schooling, daily life – those left to their own devices in these situations are likely to leave again quickly. Since 1995, we have been helping companies not only to attract international talent but also to retain it long-term.

Progedo offers an extremely efficient, competent, and proactive service. Thanks to their excellent support, we were able to overcome obstacles and difficulties that would have seriously delayed or even prevented my spouse's migration. I can wholeheartedly recommend Progedo!

Progedo took the stress out of the application process for my permanent residence permit. They kept me informed at all times and answered all my questions very quickly. I will definitely use their services again for my naturalization process and can recommend them to anyone in a similar situation.

Hello Sean, I am very grateful to you and your team for the fantastic support with our move to Germany. I had almost given up hope at one point, but thanks to Progedo's dedication, we achieved our goal. They were extremely professional, helpful, and available around the clock. I can highly recommend Progedo to anyone planning a move to Germany, as they proved to be exceptionally efficient – in my case, even 100% efficient.

I had a good experience with Progedo. The service was fast and friendly, and they even accompanied me to the LEA, which was very helpful.

There was a minor issue with errors in the application, but overall I am satisfied with the support and can recommend it. I will use their services again in the near future.
I learned about Progedo through a friend's recommendation. Throughout the entire process, I was kept well-informed, and everything was made as easy as possible by providing me with a clear checklist containing all the necessary documents, as well as relevant websites and links.

I worked with Rebekka Budich, who supported me every step of the way. As an expat, this process can be quite stressful, but Rebekka helped me enormously by always communicating clearly and proactively guiding me through all the changes.

What was particularly positive was how much security the accompaniment of a competent person to the appointments gave me – especially since I saw that most of the other applicants were left to their own devices.

At the end of this process, I am deeply grateful to the entire Progedo team and especially to Rebekka for their outstanding support and professionalism.

I had a very good experience with the relocation agency PROGEDO.
They assisted me in preparing and submitting the necessary documents for my visa in Serbia and my residence permit in Germany. Communication was smooth, and they were responsive and helpful throughout the entire process.
PROGEDO's support made the move much smoother overall.

Our development – from the beginnings to today

The story of PROGEDO is a story of entrepreneurial courage, continuous development and lived responsibility towards people.

When Frank Faggo and Jörg Holsten founded PROGEDO in 1995, their vision was clear: to make international mobility simpler, more personal, and more professional. With entrepreneurial foresight and a deep understanding of the needs of companies and international professionals, they laid the foundation for a company that goes far beyond traditional relocation services.

From a regional service provider, PROGEDO has gradually evolved into a nationwide mobility provider with an international network. With growing experience, strong partnerships, and a continuously expanding service portfolio, PROGEDO has become a reliable partner for companies of all sizes – from startups to global corporations.

One thing has remained unchanged throughout the years: the commitment to putting people first. This idea continues to shape PROGEDO today – and forms the bridge from the founding generation to the next management level.

With personalities like Agata Seget in management, this development has been consistently pursued. She represents a modern, future-oriented direction for the company, building on existing values while simultaneously setting new trends.

Today, PROGEDO combines years of experience with a fresh perspective. The blend of entrepreneurial tradition and innovative development makes the company strong for the future. Thus, PROGEDO remains what it has always wanted to be: a reliable partner for people who are forging new paths – personal, committed, and with genuine responsibility.

Our philosophy

More than just a move. A new home.

A new beginning is more than just a change of location. It is a step into the unknown, a departure, a moment full of opportunities – but also full of questions.

At PROGEDO, we believe that genuine support is crucial, especially at this crucial moment. That's why we see our role not only as organizing processes, but also as guiding people. We stand by our clients as they embark on a new chapter – with experience, understanding, and genuine connection.

For us, every relocation is unique because every person is unique. Behind every project are personal stories, goals, and expectations. We respect this individuality – and make it the focus of everything we do. We listen, we think along with you, and we find solutions that are a perfect fit.

Our aim is to provide security where uncertainty arises and to offer guidance where new paths begin. We act clearly, reliably, and transparently – always with the goal of making the journey to a new home as pleasant as possible.

PROGEDO stands for trust, partnership, and responsibility. We believe that true quality arises where professionalism meets humanity, where processes run smoothly, and where people feel understood.

Because in the end, for us it's about more than just a successful move. It's about turning a new place into a home.
