UFCW Local 464A

What UFCW Local 464A does

UFCW Local 464A is a chartered local labor union of the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union (UFCW), itself affiliated with the AFL-CIO federation. Headquartered at 245 Paterson Avenue in Little Falls, New Jersey, with a secondary office in Tarrytown, New York, the organization represents nearly 20,000 service-industry workers — primarily grocery employees — across New Jersey, New York, and parts of Pennsylvania. The employer counterparties at which the union holds bargaining rights include ACME Markets, ShopRite, Stop & Shop, Kings Supermarkets, Foodtown, and Key Foods, as well as a long tail of independent operators. The union is governed by elected officers: President John T. Niccollai, Secretary-Treasurer Richard J. Whalen, and Recorder John Niccollai III.

The union's product offering centers on collective bargaining and contract administration, supplemented by an administered Welfare Fund that provides medical, dental, and vision coverage through a network of participating providers, defined benefit pension plan administration, legal services, and an annual scholarship program (twenty awards per year, with three top awards of $2,000/year for four years of college). Member-facing technology consists of a self-service web portal ('My UFCW 464A'), a Price Comparison Tool for healthcare services and prescriptions, and informational/transactional web pages. Distribution is direct: members access services at the two physical offices, through the portal, and via periodic in-person and telephonic general membership meetings.

The revenue model is membership-dues-based recurring revenue, billed monthly, with specific rates not publicly disclosed. As a non-profit 501(c)(5) labor organization, UFCW Local 464A does not publish audited financial statements, and no revenue, dues rate, or staff headcount figure (beyond the elected officers) is available in public source material. The organization's strategic posture as of early-to-mid 2026 is defined by the February 2026 ACME five-year contract ratification, which secured no co-pay medical benefits for full-time and part-time members, substantial wage increases, and continued non-contributory pension funding — outcomes the union characterizes as 'unparalleled' within the industry.
