UFCW Local 7 has filed a counterclaim against King Soopers, accusing the grocery chain of violating a key agreement that ended February’s 12-day strike. The union says King Soopers failed to bargain in good faith, issued ultimatums, and withdrew proposals before the agreed 100-day “peace period” expired. Tensions rose further after a leadership change at the company, which the union claims has not led to meaningful improvements in negotiations. King Soopers has not publicly responded, and the peace period ends May 28.
