Unionized employees of Anchor Brewing Co., the 127-year-old San Francisco brewery that announced last week it is ceasing operations, are launching an effort to purchase the company in order to prevent its liquidation.
In a statement, Anchor spokesperson Sam Singer said that a union spokesperson sent the company an email stating that "workers of Anchor Brewing have met, discussed, and decided to launch an effort to purchase the brewery." The union spokesperson added that the purchase is being pursued by an "unidentified group of Anchor employees," not the union itself, Singer said.
