As the union representing the overwhelming majority of Flying Food Group employees nationwide, including thousands of workers across 10 major catering facilities including locations in Florida, Hawaii, New Jersey, New York, Virginia, and Washington, the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU) issued the following statement:

On July 18, 2026, members of the Tennessee District Council (TDC) at Treehouse Foods officially ratified a new contract, marking a major win for the workforce and proving what solidarity can accomplish.

The momentum at United Dairy is officially unstoppable. On April 1st, workers at the Fairmont, West Virginia, facility stood together and voted unanimously to ratify a brand-new contract that brings massive improvements to their pay, benefits, and working conditions. This big win in Fairmont comes just two weeks after RWDSU Local 379 members at the sister location in Lancaster, Ohio, secured their own landmark agreement and just a month after members in Marietta, Ohio secured theirs. By standing united across state lines, United Dairy workers are proving that solidarity pays off.

In a powerful show of solidarity, members of RWDSU Local 379 working at United Dairy in Lancaster, Ohio have voted unanimously to ratify a new collective bargaining agreement. The successful negotiations, led by RWDSU member Howard Mooney and the Local 379 bargaining committee, concluded on March 18, 2026 with a contract that delivers significant economic gains and enhanced benefits for the workforce.
