Captain D's

Captain D’s is the nation’s leading restaurant operator in the QSR seafood sector. It franchises or operates more than 500 Captain D’s seafood restaurants in 21 states, with strongholds in the Southeast and Midwest. Captain D’s menu, based on ocean-caught fish and a beach-themed dining format, uniquely positions it in the QSR market, a category that has outgrown the broader restaurant industry. Captain D’s has been recognized as one of the top 10 U.S. brands for consumer loyalty and attracts younger guests.

Captain D’s performed well during its partnership with Sentinel, especially through the Covid pandemic. In 2022, Captain D’s was sold to another private firm.
