What we do?
Caporal Capital is a Search Fund.
Our mission is to acquire a medium-sized company in Brazil, with no succession plan, and assume the management. We will maintain the entrepreneurial DNA and the founder’s mentality, profissionalize the business with efficiency and discipline to foster sustainable growth, and continues its legacy.
Invest on business continuity, so that it lasts over time, generating value for investors, employees, customers, suppliers and contributing for society.
We’re obsessed with understanding and delivering our customers’ needs. By improving our products and services, we grow. We sell more, we sell better, and we attract new customers.
We hire, train and develop our teams to be better than us. With discipline, we apply the best management tools and processes to identify, measure, control and solve problems.
