(TACOMA, Wash.) – Members of Teamsters Local 313 at Olympic Eagle in Puyallup, Wash., have voted by an overwhelming 90 percent to ratify a new contract.
The 135 sales representatives, drivers, warehouse workers, and merchandisers deliver and distribute beverages throughout the region.
“Our members at Olympic Eagle were unified from the start. These were tough negotiations, but they were determined to win a contract that reflects their hard work,” said Jeff Padellaro, Director of the Teamsters Brewery, Bakery, and Soft Drink Conference.
“This was hard-fought win for all of our members,” said Kris Fish, Business Agent and Recording Secretary with Local 313. “The bargaining committee never wavered, and with support from the International, we were able to reach a fair deal.”
