We help young healthcare professionals in Cape Town and the Western Cape structure profitable practice buyouts and access a private network of specialised funders.
Go beyond traditional bank applications with tailored deal structuring designed to get you funded.
Check Your Funding ReadinessWhen you find an established, profitable medical practice being sold by a retiring professional, applying directly to a commercial bank isn't your only path — and it's often the hardest.
At Dala For Africa, we offer a different, comprehensive approach to practice acquisition.
We make sure your acquisition framework is optimised for funding approval, taking the administrative and financial guesswork off your plate.
A curated panel of private debt and specialised healthcare lenders that range from individuals to institutions and local to international sources of capital.
We support your deal readiness upfront, with the lion's share of our fee structured on a success basis, tied directly to the capital you raise.
Our principals bring 60+ deals of exposure across grant, debt and equity, plus venture capital fund management.
Board experience in a healthcare buy-and-build and a co-founding role in a health innovation centre.
We build the data room and deal pack lenders expect, so their due diligence runs off your file, not a scramble.
We’ve streamlined healthcare practice acquisition financing into three clear steps.
We review the financial health of the target practice and prepare your portfolio, structuring the buyout to appeal directly to specialised capital providers.
We present your structured deal directly to our trusted network of funders, who look beyond traditional commercial banking constraints to provide the debt capital you need.
Secure the funding, close the transaction and step into full ownership of your new practice.
Dala For Africa has been a steady thinking partner on both funder strategy and investor relations. That combination - knowing who to approach and keeping existing backers properly informed - is underrated in a buy-and-build.

We work primarily on a success basis. Our success fee is 5% for deals up to R20 million; 3.5% for deals above R20 million up to R50 million; 2.5% for deals above R50 million up to R100 million; and 2% for deals above R100 million. Each band is subject to a minimum fee. Any initial retainer fee paid is fully deducted from the final success fee.
Typical time to getting funded can be as quick as 6 weeks. This assumes a strong business case and complete investor readiness. Timelines can be extended depending on access to required financial information and specific due diligence requirements from our funding panel.
Our ideal deal sizes range from R20 million to R100 million. However, we have deep experience in the market and can explore and structure bespoke solutions for smaller deal sizes as well.
Absolutely. We operate with strict confidentiality agreements. Your financial data and the details of the target practice are only shared with curated lenders when appropriate and secure.
