CASE CASSIOPEA advised Capello Point and its shareholders on the sale of 100% of the share capital to Hair Gallery Europe

CASE CASSIOPEA acted as exclusive M&A advisor to Capello Point S.p.A. (“Capello Point”) and its shareholders, including Star Capital SGR S.p.A. (“Star Capital”), in the sale of 100% of the share capital to Hair Gallery Europe S.r.l. (“Hair Gallery”). 

Founded in 1999 with the opening of its first store, Capello Point is a leading Italian retailer of professional hair and beauty products, operating a network of over 75 stores in major shopping centres and cities across Italy. The company has pioneered an innovative retail format, bringing professional salon expertise into its stores and offering a premium assortment of more than 1,000 SKUs, entirely produced in Italy, including over 50 proprietary brands.

Hair Gallery, based in Sant’Elpidio a Mare (Italy), is a well-established player in the haircare sector. Having evolved from a physical salon into a leading digital e-commerce platform, Hair Gallery delivers high‑quality solutions for haircare, colour, styling, and targeted treatments, offering premium haircare brands such as ghd, Kérastase, and Olaplex.

This transaction enables Hair Gallery to strengthen its market position by integrating Capello Point’s commercial network, expertise, and product portfolio. Looking ahead, the management team plans to accelerate the rollout of franchised stores, enhance omnichannel integration, and optimise operations. 

The combined group is expected to generate approximately €45 million in revenues, operate 80 stores across Italy, and employ around 300 people. 

The sale of Capello Point further reinforces CASE CASSIOPEA’s solid track record in the consumer and specialised retail sectors.
