Pilot eats and Pilot eats Express are two new food concepts from Knoxville, Tennessee-based Pilot Co.

The concepts are beginning to roll out this month, and Pilot hopes they add more consistency across locations in how its food looks, feels and travels.

Pilot eats Express will focus on grab-and-go items.
