Price Rite Marketplace marked a decade-long partnership with Feed the Children by donating approximately $1.4 million in food and essentials across 10 events, providing support to over 21,000 individuals in the Northeast. The initiative, which featured community distribution events attended by local officials and company representatives, underscores the company’s commitment to fighting hunger and supporting vulnerable communities.

On February 20, 2024, Price Rite Marketplace partnered with Feed the Children to donate nearly $2 million in food and essential supplies across nine anti-hunger events in 2023, supporting over 22,000 individuals in the Northeast.

The UFCW launched a campaign to unionize PriceRite after workers expressed interest in joining a union, prompting Wakefern to distribute anti-union information, which undermines workers’ rights.

On November 7, 2020, PriceRite workers at a Providence store, in collaboration with UFCW, reached out to shoppers to advocate for unionization. The workers reported that the company has interfered with their right to organize and has shown disrespect towards immigrant workers, highlighting broader concerns over labor rights.

In August 2015, United Food & Commercial Workers union members launched a campaign, including leafleting at multiple Price Rite stores, to pressure the company into raising wages. The protest highlighted that many workers were receiving only the minimum wage with minimal increases, underscoring poor labor practices.

Workers at a PriceRite store in Providence, R.I., supported by UFCW, gathered to protest alleged company interference in unionization efforts. Reports indicate that PriceRite has been using anti-union films during new employee orientations, sending warning letters, and distributing anti-union literature to deter workers from joining unions.
