outlet in a column/

Tags: Electrical & Lighting
We are doing a kitchen remodel, taking out a load bearing wall. If we want to install a split decorative column around the lally column, is it possible to install an outlet in the column? Is there a special curved outlet box? Any suggestions appreciated.
