Apple is Closing a Unionized Store in the U.S. and the Union is 'Outraged' Apple to Close First Unionized U.S. Store in Maryland Amid Union Backlash Apple has confirmed it will permanently close three retail stores in the United States this June, including its historic Towson Town Center location in Maryland. The announcement has sparked a fierce response from the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM CORE), as the Towson store became the first Apple retail location in the U.S. to successfully unionize in 2022. While Apple attributed the closures to "declining conditions" and the departure of other major retailers at the Towson Town Center, Trumbull Mall (Connecticut), and North County Mall (California), the union has labeled the move a "cynical attempt to bust the union." Unlike the other two closing locations where staff were offered immediate transfers, Towson employees must re-apply for open roles within the company, a distinction the union claims is a direct violation of their collective bargaining agreement. #Apple #AppleStore #Union #Towson #Maryland #TechNews #LaborRights #RetailNews #IAMCORE #MacRumors #9to5Mac #FondPeace
