Saline: Business

The Detroit Free Press reports on the story behind Gov. Rick Snyder’s mention of Saline-based Flatout Bread in his inauguration speech, citing the owners as model entrepreneurs. The business is owned by Snyder’s childhood friend, Mike Marsh, and his wife Stacey Marsh. From the report: “Mike Marsh spent many summers with Snyder. His grandmother and Snyder’s parents owned next-door cottages on Gun Lake. The friendship endured and the Marshes sought out Snyder, who by then was a venture capitalist, when they needed advice about expanding their business – Yes Yogurt and Sandwiches in Ann Arbor. They wanted to open a baking company to make the bread for their sandwiches.” [Source]
