Norway food supply sector labor dispute

Overview

Norway faces potential shortages of flour, bread, and animal feed due to a looming strike in the milling and feed production sectors. Negotiations between the Norwegian Food and Grocery Workers' Union and NHO Food and Drink are ongoing at the National Mediator's office.

If an agreement is not reached by midnight, a strike involving 238 members is scheduled to begin Tuesday morning, with the potential to escalate to 577 members. The industrial action would impact key suppliers such as Norgesmøllene and Felleskjøpet Agri, Norway’s largest animal feed provider. A prolonged dispute could disrupt bakery deliveries and reduce the availability of grain products in stores, while also threatening the supply of feed for livestock including cattle, pigs, and poultry.
