Marsh Supermarkets

Marsh Supermarkets is no backwater grocery chain. A leading retailer in Indianapolis (behind Kroger and Wal-Mart), Marsh operates about 80 supermarkets under the Marsh Supermarkets, O’Malia’s Food Markets, and Main Street Markets banners in Indiana and Ohio.

About 40% of the stores have pharmacy departments. Its floral business — Marsh Floral Fashions — operates floral and gift departments inside Marsh stores. Marsh abandoned self-distribution in 2011 and turned over the supply of all of its stores to C&S Wholesale Grocers.

Founded in 1931 by the late Ermal Marsh, the regional supermarket operator is owned by private equity firm Sun Capital Partners.
