Roundy's Supermarkets (Roundy's) is a supermarket chain with 166 stores and 99 pharmacies in Wisconsin and Illinois. Based on fiscal year 2012 sales, Roundy's was the 37th largest grocery store chain and the 89th largest retailer in the United States. As of December 2015, Roundy's became a subsidiary of The Kroger Company of Cincinnati, Ohio.
Roundy's operates under the banners of Pick 'n Save (throughout Wisconsin, beginning in 1975), Copps Food Center (in northern Wisconsin and the Madison areas, beginning in 2001), Metro Market (in the Milwaukee and Madison areas), and Mariano's Fresh Market (in the Chicago metropolitan area, beginning in 2010).
Roundy's operates food production facilities in Kenosha, Wisconsin and other locations, and has two main distribution centers, in Mazomanie and Oconomowoc, Wisconsin.
The company began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on February 8, 2012, and ceased trading on December 18, 2015, when it became a subsidiary of the The Kroger Company (Kroger).
The company was founded in 1872 in Milwaukee as Smith, Roundy & Co. by William E. Smith, Judson Roundy and Sidney Hauxhurst. Over the years it has also operated as the Roundy, Peckham & Co. and Roundy, Peckham & Dexter Co.
Roundy's was a major warehouse distributor to non-company supermarkets, including IGA, but it moved out of the wholesale market to focus on retail.
The Pick 'n Save chain, which was the backbone and propellant for growth and sale of the company in 2002, was the prodigy of two Kroger educated marketers, Vincent R. Little and Michael D. McGee, the "fathers of Pick 'n Save," who came up through the ranks at the Kroger Company.
