Acquiring and developing hospitality businesses across the Costa del Sol
A Málaga-based holding company building lasting value in Spanish hospitality. Bar None in Benalmádena is our proof of concept.
Most groups buy assets. We build operators.
PTR is a holding company built around long-term ownership, not quick flips. We bring capital, discipline, and hands-on development to every business in our portfolio.
Medium-term ownership
We hold what we buy for a period of about five years, or until the market lines up. Our model is patient capital for operators who want a partner, not a landlord.
Hands-on development
We work inside each business, tightening operations and improving performance before we ever expand.
Portfolio backbone
Shared resource, deeper vendor terms, and management depth. Each acquisition makes the next one stronger.
Local discipline
Málaga-based decision making with on-the-ground knowledge of the Costa del Sol market, coast to coast.
Full ownership cycle
From acquisition to development to eventual exit, we manage the entire journey under one roof.
Proven model
Bar None in Benalmádena is the working template. We buy, we improve, we repeat.
Bar None marks our first step
Bar None in Benalmádena is our proof of concept. We run it, learn from it, and use those lessons to shape every acquisition that follows.
How we assess a Bar None-style acquisition
Straight answers on how we evaluate and buy hospitality businesses across the Costa del Sol.
What types of hospitality businesses do you acquire?
We target bars, restaurants, and service businesses along the Costa del Sol that show solid fundamentals but need capital or hands-on development. Bar None in Benalmádena is our working example of that model.
What do you look for before making an offer?
We start with the numbers: revenue, margins, and lease terms. Then we look at location, the strength of the team, and whether the business can grow under active ownership. We move when the fundamentals hold.
Do you only buy businesses in Málaga or Benalmádena?
We focus on the Costa del Sol, so Málaga and Benalmádena are core ground. If a strong opportunity appears elsewhere along the coast, we will consider it on its own merit.
How long does the acquisition process take?
Every deal is different, but we work at a steady pace. Expect a clear timeline after the first conversation. We are direct and do not drag out due diligence.
What happens after PTR takes ownership?
We manage the business operationally. That means improvements, staffing, and marketing handled in-house. We build value by running the place well, not by flipping it quickly.
Can sellers stay involved after the sale?
Sometimes, yes. It depends on the business and the seller's goals. We are open to short transitions or longer involvement where it keeps the operation stable.
Still have questions?
