Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial capacity within one year. The director found, and the AAO agreed, that the proposed duties included many non-managerial, operational tasks such as procuring supplies, monitoring stock, and conducting direct marketing, without showing how the beneficiary would be relieved of these day-to-day activities.
