- Additional Info:On June 16, 2016, BBB was made aware of a business operating in the Spokane area called Agricultural Guest Workers Recruitment Organization or AGWRO. The organization claims to have started in 1988 by Glen Bell, Jr. to assist US Farms in the recruitment of foreign workers and to provide immigration services. They claim to assist individuals from all over the world in settling across the USA.
