Deal has been reached between King Soopers and its union workers

A deal has been reached between King Soopers and the Colorado grocery store's union workers.

The tentative agreement comes after 46 hours of talks between United Food and Commercial Workers 7 and King Soopers, whose parent company is Kroger.

UFCW Local 7 workers at a large number of King Soopers stores went on strike for 12 days in February.

In a post on social media, the union said the deal includes fully funded health care benefits and no cuts to health care, plus fully funded pension with additional contributions and what the union is calling strong wage increases.

In separate negotiations in Colorado, Safeway and the UFCW Local 7's negotiations will pick up on Friday after talks stalled. Workers at over 40 Safeway stores and a distribution center in Colorado are currently on strike.
