Captain D’s going across the pond

Captain D’s is entering the United Kingdom via a 20-unit agreement with CD’s Holdings. The first will open in Kent in August with two restaurants following in Sussex and Hampshire. 

“We have been looking for the right brand to introduce to the UK market, which is exciting and healthy,” Naveed Chattha, operations director of CDs Holdings, said in a company press release. “There is a large fish and chips market in the UK, but no one has tried to apply discipline, standards, and quality to such a level here before. With our experience, we feel Captain D’s is the right choice.” 

This is an exciting time for the brand, said Hair Parra, SV of International Operations and Development, Captain D’s. 

“Our master franchisees are committed to making a sustainable impact in the UK, and we are committed to working alongside them and offering new opportunities to other entrepreneurs as we expand into new international markets,” Parra said in the release. 

Captain D’s has over 530 restaurants.
