As an expert in labor relations and corporate structures, I can provide you with an informed perspective on the question of whether Price Chopper is a unionized company.
First, let's clarify what it means for a company to be "a union." A union is an organization formed by workers to protect and advance their interests in relation to their employers. Unions negotiate with employers to establish the terms and conditions of employment, including wages, hours, and working conditions. When we say a company is "unionized," it means that a significant portion of its workforce is represented by a union and that the company has agreed to a collective bargaining agreement with that union.
Now, regarding Price Chopper, it's important to note that the company itself is not a union, but it is a subject of interest for unions. The reference you provided from November 22, 2010, indicates that The Golub Corporation, which operates Price Chopper supermarkets, was at that time engaged in a conflict with a union that was attempting to organize workers at its stores. This suggests that at least at that point in time, Price Chopper supermarkets were not unionized, as the workers were not yet represented by a union.
However, the situation can change over time. Companies that are not unionized at one point can become unionized if the workers decide to form or join a union and the company agrees to recognize it. Conversely, a company that is unionized can cease to be so if the union representation ends, either through a decertification process or if the union and company mutually agree to end the collective bargaining agreement.
To determine the current status of unionization at Price Chopper, one would need to look at more recent information. This could involve checking for any public announcements from the company or the union, looking into labor relations boards' records, or even directly inquiring with the company or a recognized union if one exists.
