New resource helps you buy Canadian, union-made food

Toronto – July 25, 2019 – UFCW Canada, the union for food workers, has released a new resource for members, allies, and consumers that can help you and your family buy high quality, Canadian-made food by shopping union at your local grocery store.

Dubbed “Great Canadian Food Products,” the new resource features dozens of delicious food products that are proudly made and sold by UFCW Canada members across the country.

“By buying UFCW, you can have confidence knowing you’re purchasing safe, first-rate food products made right here in Canada,” says Paul Meinema, the national president of UFCW Canada. “Buying UFCW also means you’re supporting good, unionized jobs that help strengthen our communities,” the UFCW leader adds.
