Founded in 2009 as Canon Business Center Breda, Capital8 has grown into a leading player in the Dutch printing and digital services market. Driven by ambitious entrepreneurs with one shared objective: continuity and innovation across the house of brands.
Every shareholder is actively involved in the companies. This ownership model drives accountability, agility, and alignment between strategy and execution.
Centralized capabilities and platform-driven execution give every brand operational discipline and the benefits of scale.
Local accountability keeps us responsive and near our customers. The compelling alternative to large, centrally managed investment groups.
Capital8 is positioned to become the most beautiful entrepreneurial printing & service organization in The Netherlands. Creating a positive vibe athmosphere, together with professionals that meet their targets.
Capital8’s growth strategy combines predictable organic expansion with selective acquisitions. Organic growth provides a stable baseline, with a target of at least 10% annual growth. This is driven by centralized commercial platforms focused on conversion optimization and customer expansion.
Capital8 follows a structured buy, run & build model designed to deliver value creation beyond multiple arbitrage:
Acquiring profitable regional businesses with strong strategic fit, cultural alignment and clear integration potential.
Businesses are integrated using standardized processes and centralized finance, service and operational excellence tooling.
Driving further growth and scale by strengthening commercial execution and the rollout of best practices across the platform.
Every brand keeps its own name and its own entrepreneurs. Capital8 gives them the power to grow.
We are always looking for talented professionals that hit their targets and know how to have fun.

Seven brands strong, now expanding into Belgium and Luxembourg. The eight keeps turning.
Fifteen years of adding pieces built this 8. Look closely: one spot was left open, and that is no accident. Keep scrolling, and we will tell you why.
Capital is the foundation. The 8 stands for innovation, continuity and transformation: a loop of value and people that never stops turning.
We interrupt that loop on purpose. Because we want to do better every day than we did yesterday, we keep each other sharp and keep searching for the missing pieces that make the organization stronger. Every person at Capital8 owns their own piece of the 8 and plays an active role within the brands of our house.
A customer who visited our head office in Breda wrote that for him it was:
"An experience and a party to see how people at your company work with pleasure, are friendly, and have time for and with each other."
That is the core of Capital8: pleasure, professionals, targets met. A company is made by people who get energy from making each other better.
