Captain D’s Continues Conversion Growth with New Opening in McDonough, Georgia

Fast Casual Seafood Leader Opens Brand’s 113th Georgia Location

June 12, 2024, NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Captain D’s, the nation’s leading fast casual seafood restaurant, announced today its newest opening in McDonough, Georgia. The new Captain D’s is located at 3056 Jodeco Rd., on the site of a former Hardee’s restaurant. As the 62nd restaurant for the brand in the Atlanta area and 113th in Georgia, the new McDonough location is owned and operated by experienced multi-unit franchisee Farid Khan.

“We’re pleased to open the latest Captain D’s through our conversion expertise. Farid recognized the valuable property in his market that presented a ripe opportunity to repurpose into a Captain D’s restaurant,” said Brad Reed, chief development officer of Captain D’s. “It’s no secret that today’s real estate market is increasingly competitive. By offering our franchisees the ability to convert existing buildings into new restaurants, we can help them save significantly on the start-up costs. We’re thrilled to be able to utilize this process to faster serve our quality seafood to the McDonough community.”
