Message from the Managing Director
As I look at the growth over the years since our inception in 2001, I am extremely proud
of what we have achieved, and even more excited about our outlook for an equally promising
future. We have successfully transitioned from a local start-up to become a respected company,
garnering business from across the nation, while earning our clients’ trust along the way.
It is satisfying to know that we are able to help our clients build the creative workforce
that enable them to connect and operate pivotal aspects of their business more efficiently and
economically. Customer satisfaction is the hallmark by which we measure our performance, and
we hold ourselves, as do our clients, to the highest standards of quality.
In this continually evolving marketplace, our clients are more informed than ever about
their solutions provider options. Even so, they continue to select KOSHI as their partner of
choice because of our experience, commitment to quality and community, and integrity.

When conveying KOSHI’s successes, I always return back to three guiding principles—each of
which has helped define who we are today:
Govinda Thapaliya
CEO, Managing Director
koshiinternationalservices.com | 3
Message from the CEO
I. Hard-working People. Among our most important assets is the extensive knowledge
base, deep-rooted professionalism and unwavering commitment of our highly-qualified, diverse
staff. The KOSHI staff is at the core of who we are and what we do. From our Executives to our
Subject Matter Experts, and Delivery/Quality Assurance Teams to our Senior Management, the
KOSHI Team is committed to delivering the highest quality product and providing unparalleled
quality service to our clients.
II. Focus on Quality. We are committed to BE THE BEST IN EVERY PERFORMANCE
THAT WE PERFORM because we want to make the solid foundation for our future business.
Our team will go above and beyond to deliver the best in everything that we perform. To
achieve it, all the people surrounding it, even including your team, have to work exceptionally
well together. We also believe that being the best requires full-time attention and execution. To
establish one’s brand is a kind of battle in the business world but we promise to keep on going
through it.
III. Honest Perspective. As we continue to grow, each new day offers a chance for us to
work together, pursue new opportunities and improve upon the past. We establish in- depth
relationships with our clients by learning their environments, challenges and goals firsthand,
so that we can offer tangible solutions with a candid perspective. We continue to manage our
business around the evolving needs of our clients, so that we can be at the forefront of change
and deliver value—because value is what their shareholders and constituents demand.

This is the new and challenging task we are now addressing. As we continue to carry out these
activities, we will make a robust change as a unique company, a company unlike any other in the
world. All of us at KOSHI will strive hard moving in this direction.
Message from the Operations Director
Since our foundation, our recruitment rate and
success have stayed ahead of the majority of
recruitment agencies in the country. By the end of
2014, we had successfully recruited multiples of
thousands of job seekers abroad.
With our expanding scale comes the growing
strength. By promoting recruitment, we have brought
up a number of other subsidiaries as well.
I sincerely thank everyone for helping us reach this
far.. We promise to deliver qualitatively in the future
as well.
Surendra Ghimire
COO, Operations Director

Message from the COO
Ever since I obtained my Post Graduate Degree, I
have been a part of this organisation. I am proud to
see where vwe have reached, after looking back to
where we had started. I hope we continue to receive
similar unfettered support and trust from our clients
in the days to come.

Our Clients
Over the 14 years we have been in business,
Koshi has allied with clients across the
continent. We supply qualified personnel to
a wide range of industries including skilled
and unskilled labor, retail, hospitality,
medical, transportation and security. We
have a huge agent base in all the countries
we do business in, so we can effectively deal
with our clients and process their needs.
Every company is facing the same dilemma:
how do I remain competitive and execute
my business strategy in the face of margin
compression, talent shortage and economic
uncertainty? The solution is to access,
mobilize and optimize the right mix of
talent and unleash human potential. We
understand why talent sustainability is
directly tied to financial sustainability, and
how to make your people your priority to
win in the Human Age.
Today’s age is not the coal age, not the
petroleum
age, and not the nuclear age. It is the
HUMAN Age. The old ways are gone.
People leapfrog city, states and oceans to
get what they want. And they break-open
new frontiers. They create themselves again
and again. But it’s not about technology,
or money, or systems – it’s talent, will and
imagination. This is THE HUMAN AGE.
Our mission: To harness this amazing
energy; to connect the passion of
individuals to the ambition of the business.
The people have more power to move the
world forward than ever before.
We are the KOSHI Group.
