Cannabis Co. Shryne Group And UFCW Sign Historic Collective Bargaining Agreement For 1,200+ Workers

The Shryne Group Inc., a Los Angeles-based cannabis holding company  covering the breadth of California and the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union (UFCW) have entered into an historic collective bargaining agreement (CBA) for more than 1,200 cannabis retail workers at Shryne Group's STIIIZY, Authentic and Flight retail locations, creating a first of its kind global agreement to benefit retail workers immediately throughout the Golden State.

"UFCW is committed to establishing and maintaining high standards for cannabis workers," said Joe Duffle, president of UFCW Local 1167 in a recent press release. "This agreement is historic for the number of workers it covers at one of the most well-known companies in the industry, and it has the potential to be a model contract for all employers who put the respect and dignity of workers as a top priority. Together, we can continue to raise standards for everyone in this rapidly developing industry."
