Our Origin Story

In the early 2000s, Professional Catering Services had established its roots in Maine, soon to become the backstage caterer at some of the nation’s largest festivals.  

Kerry Luther, previously a firefighter, restaurant owner, and now founder of Professional Catering Services, expanded into the catering industry via one-off gigs, and events at the local civic center in Falmouth, Maine. His leadership style, honest work ethic, and trust in his crew of chefs, quickly built the foundations for success. The business grew throughout the East Coast, serving small private festivals and adapting alongside the growing event industry.

From The Gathering of the Vibes and throughout 25+ years in the industry, PCS has had the pleasure of tending to the most impactful music artists of our time. The Rolling Stones, Phish, and Beyonce to name a few, along with artists of every genre. PCS’s dedication to serving versatile and creative food, teamwork, and adaptability are a few of the core qualities that have maintained consistent quality.

The story continues today, as you will find the team serving up delectable cuisine to crews and artists. In the early mornings, people stroll into the catering tent for the abundant breakfast buffet. They are greeted by Kerry and other crew members flipping eggs to order at the omelet station. A signature detail of interacting with the people and connecting in a way that makes everyone feel at home. 

Kerry and Mollie Herman, along with the creative adventurous culinary team, travel year-round from coast to coast constructing professional kitchens and quality dining experiences. Always ready to serve while enjoying the taste of adventure along the way. 

Professional Catering Services is our team, cooking the food your crew craves, and fueling entertainment along the way.
