While not really a union, a Employee Stock Ownership Plan company does at least in theory have some of the same benefits for labor in terms of reserving seats at the table. Bob's Red Mill was founded in my hometown of Milwaukie, Oregon so I have watched it for some of its meteoric rise. Just this morning, I had a nice big bowl steel cut oats from there. Big fan.
