Joining Local 455 Together for a Better Life

Aegle Corporation employees voted in favor of UFCW 455 to be their partner on the job and to represent them as their union, and to get them a fair contract that they have earned and deserve! These workers joined our Union family on Tuesday May 18, 2021 for a better life. This newly organized group wants wage improvements, benefit enhancements, and job security. These workers will now have a voice in their benefits as we prepare to negotiate their first collective bargaining agreement!!
