Our Story

Good food, made and sold the old-fashioned way — by a family that knows your name.

The deli counter at Nolt's Marketplace, stocked with meats, cheeses and fresh salads

Since September 2012

A Family Business, Through and Through

Nolt's Marketplace opened its doors in September 2012, when Doug and Sheri Nolt set out to bring a true Amish-style deli and bakery to Fort Wayne's north side. More than a decade later it's still a genuine mom-and-pop shop — stop by and there's a good chance Doug himself will slice your order.

The Nolt name has deep Pennsylvania Dutch roots, and it shows all over the store: sweet Lebanon bologna behind the counter, shoofly-style baking traditions in the bakery case, and relationships with Amish farms and smokehouses that keep the shelves stocked with things you simply can't find at a chain store.

What We Believe

The Old-Fashioned Way Is Still the Best Way

🤝

Know Your Neighbor

Friendly, personal service — someone is always willing to help you find what you need.

🌾

Source It Right

Amish and local farms first. If we wouldn't serve it at our own table, it doesn't go in the case.

🍞

Fresh Every Morning

Donuts, breads and pies baked daily. The smoker runs four days a week — never reheated.

🏡

Rooted Here

Proud to serve the Leo Road corridor — Fort Wayne, Leo-Cedarville and Grabill's Amish country.

Our Neighborhood

Where Fort Wayne Meets Amish Country

You'll find us in the Leo Crossing Shopping Center on Leo Road (State Road 1) — the corridor that runs north from Fort Wayne toward Leo-Cedarville and Grabill, home to one of Indiana's most vibrant Amish communities.

That's not a coincidence. It's the connection that fills our deli case with 70+ Amish meats and cheeses, our shelves with homemade pasta and jams, and our bakery with recipes that have been handed down for generations.
