Over 200 drivers and warehouse workers at US Foods in Indiana have voted by a 98 percent margin to authorize a strike if the food service giant fails to offer an acceptable contract. The group of workers, represented by Teamsters Local 135, is demanding higher wages, better benefits, protections against automation, and safer working conditions.



The current contract expires on January 30, 2026. There will be no contract extensions. Unless US Foods presents a fair agreement before the deadline, Local 135 Teamsters will be forced to strike. These workers deliver to customers across the state of Indiana and into Louisville, supplying hundreds of local restaurants, major universities, including Purdue University and the University of Louisville, and critical hospital systems such as Hendricks Regional Health, Community Hospital Anderson, and Columbus Regional Health.
