DaGrosa Capital Partners LLC

What DaGrosa Capital Partners LLC does

DaGrosa Capital Partners LLC (DCP) is a Miami-based private equity and real estate investment firm led by Founder and Chairman Joseph DaGrosa Jr., with approximately 10 employees and a cumulative deal track record of roughly $2 billion in capitalized transactions since the founder's earlier ventures. The firm invests in controlling interests and influential minority positions across multiple industries, with stated sector focus areas of financial services, sports & entertainment, and real estate & hospitality. Core operating subsidiaries and portfolio companies span Axxes Capital (asset management platform targeting the accredited investor marketplace), Soccerex (global football industry events and conferences), Brazil Tower Company (over 1,100 communications towers in Northeast Brazil), Sunburn Cannabis (Florida medical cannabis), Karbon Kredit Corp (Brazilian Amazon carbon credits), Kapital Football Group (investments in soccer clubs and academies), and Global X Airlines (Part 121 charter/cargo airline), alongside jointly controlled Quinn Residences ($900 million single-family rental REIT) and ISG World (a Miami real estate brokerage with over $20 billion in residential sales).

DCP generates revenue primarily through capital appreciation, operational improvements, and exits of portfolio companies, supplemented by asset management fees from Axxes Capital and real estate development revenue through its affiliate DaGrosa Capital Development Partners LLC (DCDP). DCDP co-founded Quinn Residences in 2019, invested in ISG World in 2021, and in 2024 secured exclusive development rights with Kempinski Hotels for the brand's first U.S. branded residential project, the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District (132 residences, two 20-story towers, scheduled completion Q4 2029). Distribution occurs through private placement offerings to qualified institutional and family office investors, with luxury residential sales run through ISG World targeting international high-net-worth buyers from Latin America and Europe, and accredited-investor fund distribution via the Axxes Private Markets Fund in partnership with GCM Grosvenor and Fisher Lynch Capital.

The founder's prior deals produced marquee returns, including the JSSI exit at an 18.9x multiple and 205.9% IRR, Heartland Food Corp at a 7.6x multiple and 110.7% IRR, and Brazil Tower Company at a 6.3x multiple, lending credibility to sourcing capabilities while the firm continues to expand its operational bench across real estate, sports, and asset management verticals.
