The Marcus Corporation operates a diversified portfolio of entertainment and hospitality assets across the United States. Its largest segment, Marcus Theatres, operates nearly 1,000 screens across approximately 79 locations in 17 states under brands such as Marcus Theatres, Movie Tavern by Marcus, and BistroPlex. The company's second division, Marcus Hotels & Resorts, owns and manages a distinctive portfolio of full-service hotels, resorts, and restaurants, primarily located in the Midwest and West. A notable characteristic of the company's business model is its significant ownership of real estate, which provides operational stability and bolsters its balance sheet. Founded in 1935 with a single movie theatre in Wisconsin, the company has grown into a major regional player in both the cinema and lodging markets. The company's theatre division features premium amenities such as recliner seating, large-format screens, and in-theatre dining.
