The United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Local 360 announced that employees at Columbia Care's (OTCQX:CCHWF) Cannabist retail location and Acreage Holdings’ (OTCQX:ACRHF) The Botanist have voted to organize through the UFCW.
Workers at the Cannabist dispensary in Deptford submitted a petition to the National Labor Relations Board that ultimately led to the recent successful vote to organize. In contrast, The Botanist, which had signed on to a state-required Labor Peace Agreement, allowed employees to organize directly with the UFCW and maintained a neutral position throughout the organizing and voting process.
