Values & History
Founded by the premier caterer, Harriet Dupree, in Lexington, Kentucky in 2003. Smaller families, empty nesters, and busy professional couples are welcome to assemble and package their entrees in handy 2-3 serving portions. If requested, Entrée Vous will gladly assemble entrees for pick up, for a small additional charge.
Entrée Vous kitchens are becoming the fun new place for private parties, fund-raisers corporate entertainment, and special events as groups enjoy the camaraderie of cooking together for fun or a good cause.
Industry Performance
Market & Competition
Our meal prep business is at the forefront of one of the fastest-growing segments in the foodservice industry: a "make, take & bake" meal assembly service catering to today's active families, professionals and empty nesters that want the luxury of a home-cooked meal without all the time and expense it takes to create one.With the fast-paced lifestyles that we are all living, people turn to convenience and want healthy foods when it comes to preparing dinner for themselves and their families. Each entree serves four to six and is specially formulated to store in the freezer until it is baked off following the cooking instructions on the label. The cost per person is generally less than that of fast food and the time saved is great considering that six or more dinners can be made in little more than an hour. Many customers come to be a part of this social experience.
Training & Support
We provide all of our franchise partners a comprehensive training program at our corporate base in Lexington, Kentucky. This program includes a mix of classroom and hands-on training for two people in your organization, one of whom must be the store manager. Our field training team will assist in the opening of each location.
