MIAMI - illiNews -- CEO Coaching International, the leading firm for coaching growth-focused CEOs and entrepreneurs globally, congratulates client Airfox for joining publicly held Via Varejo, Brazil's largest retailer serving 60 million customers nationwide.

Since its founding in 2016, Santos has grown the company rapidly, winning various accolades, including Best Consumer Bank and Best Mobile App in Brazil in World Finance Magazine's 2019 Digital Banking Awards.

"I'm incredibly proud of what Airfox has accomplished so quickly and forever grateful to our ingenious and dedicated team members for all their hard work," said Santos. "With Via Varejo's support, we'll continue to lead the charge in leveraging today's technology for tomorrow's solutions and securing greater financial inclusion for all."
Seeking to serve Brazil's enormous population of consumers lacking traditional bank accounts or access to credit, Santos is leading Airfox to meet consumers' needs now more than ever by providing financial technology solutions that increase users' ability to social distance. The acquisition will quicken the integration of Airfox's products into Via Varejo's supply chain and retail stores.
