Weis Markets (NYSE:WMK) (NYSE: WMK) is a regional supermarket chain headquartered in Sunbury, Pennsylvania, operating more than 200 stores across the Mid-Atlantic and Eastern Seaboard. Founded in 1912 by Harry and Sigmund Weis as a small produce and egg business, the company has grown into a full-service grocer serving Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia and Ohio. Weis Markets offers a broad selection of products including fresh produce, bakery, deli, dairy, meat and seafood, alongside grocery, general merchandise and prepared foods.
In addition to traditional grocery offerings, Weis Markets provides pharmacy services in many of its locations, as well as in-store fuel centers at select sites. The company has invested in digital shopping solutions, launching online ordering, curbside pickup and home delivery options to meet evolving consumer preferences. Weis’s private-label brands—such as Weis Quality, Weis Organics and Wise Choice—complement national brands and aim to deliver value and variety to shoppers.
Over its century-long history, Weis Markets has expanded through strategic acquisitions and organic growth. Key acquisitions have included Crispin Supermarkets, Bargain Town and Graul’s Markets, each reinforcing the company’s presence in existing markets or opening new trade areas. Weis became a publicly traded company in 1973 and has since balanced regional expansion with investments in technology, distribution and supply-chain capabilities to support its store network.
Leadership at Weis Markets is headed by President and Chief Executive Officer Dirk Van Eaton, who oversees corporate strategy, operations and growth initiatives. The company maintains close ties to its founding family’s legacy while focusing on community engagement, sustainability efforts and initiatives to advance employee development and food-access programs in the regions it serves.
