On Tuesday, August 26, 2025, Food City was honored to sponsor the Knox County Sheriff’s Office awards ceremony, which celebrated the outstanding deputies, detectives, and civilian staff who went above and beyond in their service to KCSO and our community.
Each of these honorees, recognized for the first half of 2025, has made a tremendous impact within the KCSO and throughout Knox County, and we are proud to celebrate their achievements. We are grateful for their commitment to keeping Knox County safe.
