History of Capo Group S.p.A.

Capo Group history starts in 1980 when the first beauty salon of Mr. Tranito opened its doors and attracted lots of attention and became profitable. Due to our perseverance, throughout the period of two years, nine more beauty salons were opened. Since 1982, the net of beauty salons continued to expand into Spain, where four new beauty salons were established.

A beauty salon company Santa Betty had fifteen beauty salons in Italy and Spain and continued to expand its beauty empire. The next step was to create beauty cosmetics line and for this step Capo Group launch first production site at Milan.

Capo Group is a management conception which has been implemented since 1987. The company’s management conception and principles were established in 1988 upon the signing of collaboration agreements between Italian and Spanish business associations, seeking to unite more business corporations into one segment. This was successfully implemented in 1989 by the President of Capo Group Mariano Tranito who was the owner of Santa Betty controlling the net of beauty salons and spas in Italy and Spain.

This system functioned for the purposes of unification between businesses and to create one name reflecting quality, precision and landmark brand name.
