Gazos Africa was established to steward the family’s capital responsibly, growing it across generations through careful investment in Africa.
Gazos Africa is a private family investment office based in Lagos, Nigeria. We manage and invest the family’s own capital. We do not raise money from, or manage money for, outside investors.
Our independence means we answer to the family alone. We are free to take a long-term view, to be selective, and to remain committed to the businesses and assets we own.
We invest across Africa in sectors we understand: oil and gas, banking and financial services, high-potential startups, listed equities, private businesses, and other financial and intangible assets.
Our purpose is to preserve and grow the family’s wealth for future generations while contributing to the development of Africa’s economies.
We believe the most durable returns come from owning good businesses for a long time, backing people of integrity, and investing where capital creates real economic value: jobs, infrastructure, stronger institutions and deeper capital markets.
We act honestly, keep our word and hold ourselves to high ethical standards.
We respect the confidentiality of our family, our partners and the businesses we invest in.
We measure success over years and decades, not quarters.
We build long relationships based on trust, alignment and mutual respect.
We are mindful of our impact on communities, the environment and Africa's future.
We are careful stewards of capital and think carefully before we act.
Investment decisions follow a structured review and approval process within the family office. Every opportunity is assessed against our principles and focus areas, and is subject to thorough due diligence before any commitment is made.
We work with independent legal, financial and technical advisers where appropriate, and we hold ourselves to high standards of confidentiality, compliance and ethical conduct.
