Roche Bros.
- Massachusetts
Roche Bros. Supermarkets, Inc. is a chain of supermarkets based in Mansfield, Massachusetts. The company's stores are primarily located in the Boston Metro Area. Roche Bros. also operates the supermarket chain Sudbury Farms.
A third banner, Brothers Marketplace, primarily the next-generation concept of the brothers Ed and Rick Roche, has five locations: the first one was opened in Weston, Massachusetts and a second in Medfield, Massachusetts, both in 2014. Since then three more have been opened: Waltham, Massachusetts in 2018, Duxbury, Massachusetts in 2019, and Cambridge, Massachusetts, also in 2019. The Waltham location closed nearly 3 years after it opened in May 2021.[2][3][4][5][6]
History
Pat and Bud Roche opened their first store in Roslindale, Massachusetts in 1952 as a meat and produce shop. The store expanded to include groceries in 1957.[7] The brothers later passed down the company to their sons Jay, Ed, and Rick Roche.[8][9]
On April 29, 2015, a Roche Bros. store opened in Boston's Downtown Crossing in the space formerly occupied by the original Filene's Basement.[10][11]
As of May 2019, the chain had 15 Roche Bros. and two Sudbury Farms locations.[12]
Locations
Roche Bros. Supermarkets, Inc. currently operates in 20 locations.[13]
