Workers At Starbucks Cafe In Mesa Vote To Unionize In Latest Threat To Corporate Profits A growing number of Starbucks'' corporate-owned stores are launching unionization efforts, emboldened by a handful of stores in upstate New York. The latest effort comes from Mesa, Arizona, where workers at a company-owned cafe located on Power Road and Baseline Road voted 25 to three in favor of unionizing under Workers United, a branch of the Service Employees International Union. A second store in Mesa has already filed for a union election. Ballots from the NLRB were sent out Friday afternoon and will have to be received by March 18. The store is the first Starbucks cafe outside of the Buffalo, New York area to unionize, and the third overall. To date, more than 100 Starbucks locations have filed for union elections, all within the last six months and doubling their count in the last month alone after the first victories in Buffalo. These cafes represent a small fraction of Starbucks'' footprint in the US - the company presently counts almost 9K company-owned restaurants across the US.
