About The Client

After more than a century, the company takes tremendous pride in being independent, family-owned, made in the U.S.A., and still located in its original headquarters. At Marsh, all employees are makers — whether they work in the plant, handcrafting beautiful cabinets, in the offices, making plans and taking actions that move the business forward, or in the five retail design showrooms, bringing Marsh style to homes throughout the region.
Why Marsh?
