Overview
Marsh Supermarkets is no backwater grocery chain. A leading retailer in Indianapolis (behind Kroger and Wal-Mart), Marsh operates about 95 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. Founded in 1931, the family of late founder Ermal Marsh sold the company in 2006 to an affiliate of private equity firm Sun Capital Partners (SCP) for about $325 million. After restoring the grocery chain to profitability, SCP put it up for sale in late 2009 but took it off the market in 2010.
