REAP Mission Statement

Since 1989, Research-Education-Advocacy-People (REAP) has researched a wide range of issues that impact United Food & Commercial UFCW members, UFCW local unions and workers in general. Some, but not all of our research have included:

UFCW bargaining in some of the largest industries in the U.S.

Long-term wage and UFCW bargaining trends in the retail supermarket and meat packing industries;

UFCW organizing and mergers; union democracy and leadership accountability within UFCW;

The UFCW International Union Constitution and Conventions;

Salaries of UFCW union officers;

The structure and operation of the 1.3 million member UFCW

The results of our research have been shared at no cost to interested UFCW members, local union officers, staff, certain universities and those interested in worker struggles. This information has been provided in newsletters, in-depth reports, briefing papers, pamphlets, at seminars and in this Website.

REAP believes that workers can only advance in the economic, social and political arenas through a strong and democratic trade union movement. REAP firmly believes that workers need a union and should participate and support a union. REAP also believes that a strong and democratic trade union movement is good for America.
