The Challenge:

Valmont saw business opportunities across the Middle East, North Africa, and Sub-Saharan Africa. Local nationals had the networks, market knowledge, and credibility to deliver ROI, but Valmont had no way to capitalize on it.

The blockers:

  • No hiring infrastructure. Limited legal entities in key markets meant no way to employ local nationals.
  • Payment logistics nightmare. Banks in-region had control measures impacting transfers to local accounts, making payments difficult.
  • Limited regional expertise. The team lacked knowledge on local compensation benchmarks, benefits structures, or employment requirements. Every new market meant starting from scratch.

The Solution:

What Valmont needed wasn't just a platform, it was regional expertise wrapped in operational infrastructure.

“RemotePass had a whole suite of offerings nobody else offered... plus you're subject matter experts in countries where we don't have expertise. It was a no-brainer."

  • Regional knowledge. Local compensation benchmarking, benefits guidance, and employment law expertise for markets Valmont had never operated in.
  • Cost advantage. Eliminated hundreds of thousands in entity setup costs per country and 12-18 month timelines.
  • Technology edge. Mobile approvals for fast action, e-wallets for instant payments, built-in compliance management.
  • Customization. Adapted to Valmont's needs rather than forcing rigid workflows.

Implementation

Instead of bots and ticket queues, Valmont got direct access to the implementation team who jumped on calls in the right time zone, walked them through setup, and stayed accessible throughout.

"For something as sensitive as dealing with someone's salaries, we wanted face-to-face, and you became a trusted partner. It was a delight to speak to someone directly and they were there every step of the way."

The Results:

The impact was immediate. Valmont went from being blocked in key markets to hiring and paying local nationals seamlessly.

Key results:

  • Couldn't hire locally → Now operating across emerging markets without setting up entities.
  • Relied on expensive expats → Now hiring local nationals with better market knowledge and ROI.
  • Payments blocked by banks → Seamless multi-currency payments working across regions.
  • Limited regional expertise → On-demand access to compensation, benefits, and compliance experts.
  • Payroll anxiety → Complete confidence in accurate, on-time payments.

"The last thing we want to do is mess around with payroll, RemotePass gives us every bit of confidence that our people are paid correctly and on time, always"

For multinationals expanding into emerging markets, the question isn't whether to hire locally, it's how to do it compliantly and efficiently. RemotePass answers that question.
