Tamtam tracks 375 family-owned companies headquartered in Brazil. This list ranks the 100 largest by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by Grupo Mateus, Hinode Group and M. Dias Branco. Their median headcount is 1,446. Half of them were founded in 1970 or later. The most common headquarters are São Paulo (21), Fortaleza (5) and Porto Alegre (4).

This list contains family-owned companies in Brazil, primarily large groups and mid-sized firms. The dominant sectors are retail and food and beverage manufacturing. Companies like Grupo Mateus operate in supermarket retail and wholesale, while M. Dias Branco produces a variety of food products. Hinode Group specializes in beauty and well-being products, and Safra is a global financial services firm.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 14, 2026.
