Captain D's Largest Operator Adds Another Location to Portfolio

Chris Benner and Tim Stokes are adding to their Captain D’s empire with the opening of their newest location in Gulfport, Mississippi. It’s the city’s first Captain D’s location.

Benner and Stokes’ Trident Holdings, LLC, began franchising with Captain D’s in 2015 and the partners have gone on to become the largest operators in the brand’s system with more than 45 locations. Most of the duo’s units are in the Southeast, in states like Georgia, where they opened another Captain D’s restaurant earlier this year.

Their newest Captain D’s site was previously a Church’s Chicken and highlights the brand’s real estate strategy of converting former restaurant spaces into their restaurants.
