    LOUISVILLE COFFEE SHOPS ARE UNIONIZING AND STRIKING

    July 26, 2023 // Last Monday, several Louisville coffee shops weren’t open for business as usual. That’s because employees at Sunergos Coffee and Starbucks recently unionized. They organized a one-day strike to protest low wages and working conditions. Both Starbucks and Sunergos failed to negotiate collective bargaining agreements with their workers. Baristas at Heine Brothers Coffee also recently formed a union, but they agreed to a contract earlier this year.
