Robyn Wheeler has worked at Giant Food for 36 years. Her father worked for the company for 38 years and her daughter and son-in-law work for the company as well. Between them, they have nearly 100 years of experience with the company. But thanks to a corporate merger, their jobs are at risk, reports their union, UFCW Local 400. Eight stores in the region, including the Giant where Robyn Wheeler works, could be sold as the result of a merger between Ahold and Delhaize, the European-based parent companies of Giant Food and Food Lion. As part of the newly-launched #savemystore campaign, those concerned are urged to join UFCW Local 400, together with Robyn Wheeler and her coworkers, for a town hall tonight at 6pmin Stafford (see Calendar above).
