Fourteen years ago, The Graebel Alliance brought together, by-invitation, a consortium of twenty global moving and storage firms so that company owners and executives could collaborate to share best-in-class service practices and programmes. The organisation expanded to include relocation and mobility companies in 2005 and was renamed Graebel Relocation Alliance.  The Alliance now has 200 members on six continents.
