STOP & SHOP NEGOTIATIONS UPDATE 3/3/10 - 7:30AM

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Sorry for the late update, contract talks continued late into the evening yesterday.

Stop & Shop is reviewing the latest set of proposals from all five New England locals on economics. Each individual local met with the Stop & Shop negotiating team to iron out remaining issues on pension and healthcare coverage. We will meet again today at 9:00 AM and continue to bargain as you continue to work.

We will keep you updated as soon as we have more information.  Stay strong and continue to do the great job you've been doing.

Remember: Your strength is your unity and your unity is your strength.

Thank you for your continued solidarity.

In Solidarity,
Dave Fleming, President
UFCW Local 328
