Capital with a long horizon
Alongside the trading business, the group has spent five decades building an investment portfolio — as promoters rather than passive holders.
We take positions in businesses we understand, in a market we have operated in since 1975, and we hold them.
Commercial banking
Promoter interests in Nepal's commercial banking sector, held over decades rather than traded.
Insurance
Promoter interests across both life and non-life insurance.
Private equity
Founding partner in private equity — capital and operating experience, not capital alone.
Real estate
Property investments and holdings, developed and held for the long term.
E-commerce
Ventures in Nepal's digital commerce sector, built alongside our own platform.
Public equity
Holdings across listed companies on the Nepali exchange.
Promoters, not passive holders
We take operating positions
Board seats and promoter stakes, not minority holdings bought for a quarter. The same involvement we bring to a brand we distribute.
We invest where we already operate
Fifty years in Nepali trade is fifty years of watching which sectors work here and which do not.
We hold
Several of these positions are older than most of the companies now competing in them.
Individual holdings, entities and projects are not listed publicly. Enquiries can be directed to info@santonza.com.
