PROFILE ABROADSCOPE & VISAS ABROAD
Charting success globally from SA
CANDICE MAGEN
Candice Magen, founder of Abroadscope and Visas Abroad, leads globally competitive relocation and visa services from South Africa, driving innovation and growth.
As the founder and CEO of two expanding companies – Abroadscope and Visas Abroad – Candice Magen has successfully leveraged her expertise and entrepreneurial drive to create globally relevant solutions, all while firmly rooting her operations in South Africa.
Founded in 2013 to simplify the complex process of moving, settling, and thriving in SA, Abroadscope quickly became a market leader. The company specialises in comprehensive relocation packages, offering everything from logistical planning and accommodation sourcing to cultural integration support.
Under Magen’ s leadership, Abroadscope differentiated itself by focusing on a personalised, high-touch service model, recognising that moving overseas is often a personal and stressful experience.
As a complement to Abroadscope, Magen established Visas Abroad to address the critical bottleneck in any international move: securing the necessary documentation. Visas Abroad is a dedicated visa consultancy that manages the intricate, often bureaucratic process of visa and permit applications for a wide range of destinations. What sets Visas Abroad apart is its deep, localised expertise combined with global operational excellence. They handle complex cases for professionals, students, investors, and families, ensuring compliance and maximising approval rates.
Key success factors for visas abroad
• Technology integration: Investment in technology for efficient document management and real-time application tracking.
• Global partner network: Strong relationships with industry experts and professional organisations
• Compliance and ethics: A reputation for impeccable ethical standards and rigorous adherence to international immigration laws.
" We are proof that world-class, globally competitive services can be conceptualised and executed right here in Cape Town. Our South African roots give us a unique perspective as we understand the drive to seek opportunities and the importance of professional support during major life changes,” Magen says.
“ My motivation is my immense pride in South Africa, the beautiful people and places in this amazing country are worth so much, and we still have so much untapped potential. My goal is to make South Africa and the world more accessible by simplifying and streamlining visa and immigration processes. We especially want to continue our work of ensuring that South Africa remains an attractive investment destination and that we optimise the immigration processes to better serve our global ambitions and remain an African powerhouse,” Magen said.
