Your Concierge Connection, a Utah-born hospitality and guest service management provider for more than 20 years, is pleased to introduce its newest offering: Luxury Transportation services.
“It’s exciting to see how much our community is growing and evolving. We hope providing our cherished clients with an unforgettable luxury transportation experience—whether it’s for one special occasion or to fill a perpetual need—will leave everyone along for the ride satisfied with an incredible experience,” said Your Concierge Connection Owner and President Marcia Foote.
Launched on a pilot basis at the Zions Bankcorporation Technology Campus in Midvale, Your Concierge Connection has taken the typical employee shuttle to new heights as a Luxury Transportation service. Since September, Zions Bank employees and guests have been treated to an elevated level of comfort by riding around campus in a brand-new Mercedes Benz Sprinter van driven by highly trained, service-oriented drivers. Now, Your Concierge Connection is ready to fully roll out this new offering to provide clients with a luxury upgrade to their transportation needs.
“The team at Your Concierge Connection has been amazing to work with,” said Howard Cooke, Project Manager for The Gardner Group. “They took a huge problem of mine and solved it by providing amazing luxury transportation services. They are the definition of class and their team has done a great job.”
Led by the mother-son duo of Foote and Anthony Panuzio, Your Concierge Connection has long been a leader in Salt Lake City, Las Vegas and Southern California markets for retail services such as guest service management, event staffing, and hospitality marketing.
“Basically, our goal is to make our clients’ lives easier,” said Panuzio, Your Concierge Connection Operations Director. “Whether it's serving as the face of an event or public space or providing critical support behind the scenes, we strive to be a useful and invaluable service provider.”
Your Concierge Connection’s esteemed clients, past and present, include the 2002 Olympic Winter Games in Salt Lake City, Mountain View Village, The Gateway Mall, The Shops at South Town, the Howard Hughes Corporation, and Simon Property Group.

Shula 347 Grill Grand Opening & Embassay Suites Hotel
April 2013
The Embassy Suites hotel was to be the center point of a $500 million mixed-use development.
The management company was new to the Salt Lake market and needed guest services, event planning, and management for their grand opening.
The fine dining component of the property was Shula’s 347 Grill operated by the legendary NFL coach’s family. Aside from managing the event and accommodating guest needs, YCC was also tasked with media outreach for the event.
The Shops at South Town hired Your Concierge Connection to provide Street Team Ambassadors for a large scale event adjacent to their property, Odysseo by Cavalia. This internationally acclaimed entertainment company brought its latest creation to Sandy Utah. This is the world's largest touring productions featuring 65 magnificent horses, acrobats, dancers and musicians. This production made its debut under the Big White Top on the west side of The Shops at South Town.
The sold out shows provided a great opportunity for the center to capitalize on capacity crowds visiting their property daily. YCC team members engaged with guests before and after the shows to promote and drive traffic to the property's retail stores and restaurant venues. YCC staff handed out a variety of collateral materials including bounce back offers and coupon books. YCC hired, trained and provided on-site supervision throughout the length of the engagement.
