Alterra Africa Accelerator Fund

Compiled from public sources

The Alterra Africa Accelerator Fund is a Pan-African private equity fund structured as a Mauritius-domiciled limited partnership. The fund is managed by Alterra Capital Partners, a firm formed by a combination of experienced teams from Carlyle Africa and Emerging Capital Partners. The strategy targets mid-cap, EBITDA-positive companies that provide essential consumer goods, services, and business solutions across the continent, with a focus on East and Southern Africa. The fund typically seeks to take significant minority or control stakes in operationally mature businesses to support their growth and regional expansion into neighbouring, less-developed countries, with a strong commitment to measurable development impact (SDGs and gender equity).
