Coopers' International Union of North America

The Coopers' International Union of North America (CIUNA) was a labor union representing coopers in the United States and Canada.Later in the year, it ceased to operate as a national union, and surrendered its charter.However, about ten of its local unions survived, and on November 10, 1890, they formed the CIUNA at a meeting in Titusville, Pennsylvania.[2] It had a long-standing dispute with the United Brewery Workmen, which led to many coopers instead being represented by that union.Prohibition in the United States further reduced the membership of the union, and by 1925, it had only 1,215 members.
