FACTS ABOUT UFCW 588 AND NORTHERN CALIFORNIA’S CONCESSIONARY FOOD INDUSTRY CONTRACTS – 198
Former Local 588 President Jack Loveall and his son, Jacques, have been at the forefront of leading concessionary bargaining with Safeway and Northern California’s other major food employers since the Lovealls took over 588 in 1984. The UFCW 588 impact on bargaining increased when the union merged five local unions in the early 1990’s to expand its membership from 9,500 to 22,000 making it the largest local union in Northern California. No successful labor dispute could be fought if Local 588 was not on board, according to a number of union consultants.
