In response to this commentary about the Brattleboro Food Co-op and contract negotiations with UFCW, let us set the record straight.
The Co-op's management representatives have indeed been negotiating with the bargaining unit's representatives and their UFCW advisors since March of 2013, when the union formed its bargaining team.
Not unusual for a very first contract, it took all of a year to work through the many agreements needed. It has been a learning experience for all of us.
As of May 15, 2014, all of the contract details were resolved and signed by representatives from both sides of the negotiations.
