With the most experienced and best-connected team of forty-two people, the firm invests through different vehicles and strageties in Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and, opportunistically, in European growing businesses that operate in a diverse range of industries like food, manufacturing and services - excluding financial services and real estate.

Portobello Capital takes controlling and minority stakes to boost company´s growth through levers like consolidation, professionalization, and internationalization.

PBC has executed more than 50 transactions, it is currently invested in 25 companies and its priority is to continue delivering, through a disciplined methodology, risk – adjusted returns to investors across cycles and value to all stakeholders.
