Metro warehouse workers end walkout as contract signed

The union, Unifor, says 900 employees at the Metro supermarket distribution warehouse in Etobicoke are back to work this weekend after approving a new contract. It means that fresh produce is now being restocked at Metro and Food Basics stores. Under the new agreement, workers will receive an average pay increase of 15.8 percent over the next four and a half years, starting with a $2.25 per hour increase in the first year paid retroactively to Oct. 24, 2021.
