Targe Capital targets medium sized companies with a history of profitability in the range of R2 million to R15 million operating profit, although it has access to the financial resources to invest in a larger business should the opportunity warrant this. We will consider businesses located anywhere in South Africa that meet our criteria.

We are unconstrained by the processes and bureaucracy of large corporate investors. We offer a fast, personal approach to dealmaking and share the entrepreneurial outlook of our clients.
