UFCW 1006A is proud to congratulate workers from Dom Amodeo Produce at the Ontario Food Terminal on achieving UFCW 1006A representation.
The workers, who work in warehousing and shipping, voted to join 1006A through an online vote conducted by the Ontario Labour Relations Board between October 8 and 9, 2025.
“On behalf of UFCW 1006A, I am proud to welcome our newest members to the union family,” said President Wayne Hanley. “This is an inspiring victory which demonstrates the solidarity and determination of workers at Dom Amodeo Produce. UFCW 1006A is proud to be the best union in Ontario for all workers seeking fairness, respect and dignity at work. We look forward to working with our members to help them achieve a fair first contract.”
The workers sought union representation to achieve job protection and improvements to their working conditions.
“It was incredible to see how the workers came together and supported each other during this campaign,” said Lesley Prince, Director of Organizing for UFCW 1006A. “UFCW representation provides workers with the strength and protection they need to improve their rights and change their workplaces for the better.”
"We joined the union because we wanted to improve our wages, negotiate benefits and improve our hours of work," said a worker from Dom Amodeo Produce.
"I wanted to be part of a union because I wanted to find purpose in my life — a purpose that keeps me going every day, that gives meaning to my work, and reminds me that what we do, can always be made better and fairer," said another worker from Dom Amodeo Produce.
Dom Amodeo workers join UFCW members at the Provincial Fruit Company as the second location represented by 1006A at the Ontario Food Terminal.
