Delhaize Union Activists Stage Protest at Wetstraat 16, Resulting in Closure of Fifteen Brussels Branches
Fifteen Delhaize stores in Brussels remained closed due to a labor dispute between the supermarket and the unions. The closure of these branches is a result of ongoing protests and demonstrations by Delhaize militants. The protesters gathered at Wetstraat 16, which is the location of the supermarket’s headquarters. The demonstrations have been peaceful and without incident.It is worth noting that in a previous protest, nine Delhaize shops were closed in opposition to plans to spin them off. However, the current closure of fifteen branches is specifically related to the labor dispute.
The labor dispute between Delhaize and the unions has led to the closure of these branches, impacting the availability of services for customers in Brussels. The situation is ongoing, and it remains to be seen how the dispute will be resolved and when the affected stores will reopen.
