Canadian-Made Product Campaigns

Unifor Calls on Retailers to Prioritize Canadian-Made

Unifor, Canada’s largest private-sector union, has called on major grocery retailers — like Empire, Loblaw, and Metro — to prioritize Canadian-made products in response to potential trade tariffs from the US. In a letter addressed to the CEOs of these companies, Unifor National President Lana Payne emphasized the importance of supporting domestic industries to safeguard Canadian jobs. The union has proposed clear labeling and promotional efforts to help consumers easily identify locally produced goods, as well as a commitment from retailers to source from Canadian suppliers whenever possible.

The request aligns with Unifor’s broader initiative to strengthen domestic manufacturing and secure employment across the supply chain. By encouraging consumers to choose Canadian-made products, the union seeks to mitigate the potential economic fallout of trade restrictions.
