A hearing is set for April 17 before the National Labor Relations Board to hear allegations by a union that a San Luis, Ariz.-based grocery store chain blocked efforts to organize its employees.
United Food and Commercial Workers (UCFW) is seeking to unionize employees of Factor Sales, owner of the Del Sol and King Market grocery stores around Yuma County.
