About Marujo Partners

Dear Business Owner,

When we founded Marujo Partners in 2019, we had a simple yet ambitious vision: to make world-class M&A advisory accessible to every Portuguese business owner, regardless of company size or transaction value. For too long, professional M&A services have been the exclusive domain of large corporations with deep pockets, leaving small and medium-sized enterprises to navigate complex transactions alone.

We believe this is fundamentally wrong. Every business owner who has spent years building their company deserves expert guidance when making the most important financial decision of their life. That's why we've built Marujo Partners on three core principles: affordability without compromising quality, transparency in every interaction, and unwavering commitment to our clients' success.

Our team brings over 75 years of combined experience from leading investment banks and advisory firms across Europe. We've closed over €2.3 billion in transactions, ranging from €500,000 family business transfers to €150 million corporate acquisitions. This depth of expertise, combined with our lean operational model, allows us to offer premium services at fees that are 40-60% lower than traditional advisory firms.

What truly sets us apart is our commitment to the Portuguese market. We understand the unique challenges of doing business in Portugal—from navigating local regulations to understanding cultural nuances in negotiations. We've built relationships with over 200 qualified buyers, including private equity firms, strategic acquirers, and family offices specifically interested in Portuguese businesses.

Whether you're considering selling your business, planning succession, or exploring acquisition opportunities, we're here to guide you every step of the way. Our success is measured not by the number of deals we close, but by the satisfaction and financial outcomes of our clients.

We look forward to being your trusted partner in this journey.
