Donna Benton

Founder, The Benton Group

In 2000, Benton relocated to Dubai from Australia to pursue a marketing job. The realisation that none of the numerous restaurants spread across the city incentivised customers led Benton to create “buy one get one free” voucher book The Entertainer in 2001. While she completely exited the business in September 2020, Benton has now also set up a holding company, The Benton Group (TBG), which has diversified into businesses ranging from hospitality and sports to fitness and fashion. Last year, she launched her new swimwear brand Caha Capo – under the umbrella of TBG.
