History
The union was founded in 1940 as the Distillery, Rectifying and Wine Workers' International Union, and was chartered by the American Federation of Labor on December 20.[1] It transferred to the new AFL-CIO in 1955, and by 1957, it had 25,000 members.[2]
In 1963, the union renamed itself as the Distillery, Rectifying, Wine and Allied Workers' International Union of America, becoming the DWAW in 1978.[1] By 1980, the union's membership had risen slightly, to 26,600.[3] On October 11, 1995, it merged into the United Food and Commercial Workers' International Union.[1]
