Since taking over SoDel Concepts as CEO in 2014, Scott Kammerer — who worked for the restaurant group long before that with his late mentor Matt Haley — has focused on the future development of SoDel, the largest restaurant group in Delaware employing more than 1,000 people. Overseeing that momentum is no easy feat: SoDel now includes 22 business operations, with 18 coastal Delaware restaurants, three sports concessions and a wedding-and-events venue. He’s also become a major philanthropist, with SoDel Cares donating more than $100,000 annually to local causes.
