Company overview
Founded in 2008 by Emmanuel Dufour, marcel&fils is a specialist in the distribution of organic food and non-food products, including fruits and vegetables, grocery items, butchery, dietary supplements, cosmetics, and household products. Historically established in southeastern France, the brand now operates 67 outlets and ranks among the top five French networks of specialized organic stores.
As a committed organic player, marcel&fils offers over 8,000 references, prioritizing local and artisanal products and paying particular attention to product quality, in line with its “epicurean organic” philosophy.
marcel&fils stands out thanks to:
- in-store bakery, butcher, and cheese counters;
- naturopath advice available in every store;
- leading private-label brands in their respective categories.
Our approach
By our side, marcel&fils continues to grow and expand its network through both new store openings and acquisitions, while reaffirming its “epicurean organic” spirit.
Since Weinberg Capital Partners joined its shareholding, marcel&fils has carried out three external growth operations with the acquisitions of Onalavie in 2021, La Vie Saine in 2022, and Bio&Co in 2025.
Making a difference
The company has drawn up an action plan focusing on well-being at work, reduction in energy usage, solidarity and protecting the environment.
