Asheville’s Valet Gourmet launches in Knoxville

After a successful decade in Asheville, Valet Gourmet, the area’s largest multi-restaurant delivery service, is expanding into its first new market through the acquisition of 622-EATS in Knoxville, TN.

Valet Gourmet, known for placing a premium on customer service, has partnered with many of Asheville’s premier restaurants in bringing fresh and diverse options to food delivery.   Valet Gourmet’s website makes it effortless to order online and, if you’re the type that responds more to the personal touch, they have a friendly staff waiting to take your order over the phone.

“We are thrilled and humbled to be establishing a presence in the Knoxville community,” said Kenan Hopkins, founder and president of Valet Gourmet.  “We look forward to applying our unique blend of customer service and company culture to the foundation that 622-EATS has built over the last four years.”

Established in 2003, Valet Gourmet began by partnering with 13 restaurants, four delivery drivers, and one office employee.  Almost 11 years later, Valet Gourmet partners with over 100 restaurants, 60+ delivery drivers, and a dozen office employees.

Valet Gourmet’s company purpose is to “Create a Working Environment that Inspires World-Class Customer Service.”  The company has established a unique culture, defined by a set of six Core Values, which drives the hiring and decision-making process.
