“Captain D’s has done a great job of offering customers a great value and exciting menu options in a re-imaged comfortable restaurant environment—now it’s time to turn our attention to gaining more media impact through multiple media channels.”
Empower’s 32 years of quick service and fast casual restaurant experience includes Wendy’s, Buffalo Rings & Wings and Papa John’s Pizza.
“Our expertise will improve their targeting across all media channels, ensuring the right message reaches the right consumer at the right time.” Jim Price, Empower CEO said.
As the world’s largest buyer of wild-caught sustainable Alaska pollock and health-conscience consumers craving more low-fat and low-carb meals, Captain D’s has been leading the fast-casual dining marketplace with its expanded seafood menu. As a result, Captain D’s has experienced six consecutive years of same-store sales growth. This combined with Captain D’s commitment to great food, great value with even better service landed the seafood chain in QSR Magazine’s top 50 restaurant list.
