Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in an executive capacity. The AAO found that the beneficiary's described duties included many non-qualifying operational tasks, such as market research, direct sales, and inventory purchasing, which were not delegated to subordinate staff.
