Benjamin Teidi started his professional career at the age of 18 at Georgian second division side Gagra. In 2015, Teidi joined Merani Martvili where he stayed for next four seasons. On 22 November 2016, he played full 90 minutes in the Georgian Cup final against Torpedo Kutaisi.
In early 2019, Teidi signed for Dinamo Batumi who had just gained promotion to Erovnuli Liga. Being a stable squad player during the following four years, Teidi contributed to Dinamo's title-laden success as they won the champion's title, lifted the national cup and three times secured the silver medals.
