Approximately 600 unionized delivery workers at Manhattan Beer & Beverage Distributors in NYC have gone on strike due to contract disputes. Workers are demanding higher wages, retirement options, and other benefits after their pension plans were revoked by the company. With the strike affecting popular brands like Corona, Coors, and Angry Orchard, beer availability in bars and bodegas may dwindle. The employees plan to continue the strike until a satisfactory deal is reached, which signals a potentially prolonged cessation of beer distribution in the area.
The strike started after the company failed to create a new contract for its workers, who are demanding higher wages and more benefits.
According to union workers, the conflict started when the beer distribution company made workers exit their pension plans.
Employees plan to remain on strike for as long as it takes to reach a deal, meaning we might be in for a long dry spell.
Manhattan Beer & Beverage Distributors has over 350 trucks and distribution rights to 300 brands, affecting iconic beverages.
