Vancouver's only unionized Starbucks set to close: Store on Dunbar Street will shut down at end of September due to expiring lease, company says

The workers are apparently offered a transfer to nearby stores. Do they keep the unionized status?

Twenty-two workers at the Dunbar location voted to join the USW in February, joining two other Metro Vancouver Starbucks — Clayton Heights in Surrey and Valley Centre in Langley — in beginning negotiations for a collective agreement. Around the same time, workers at non-unionized shops in B.C. were given pay increases.

oh so they actually can afford to pay their staff more.....
