The Norwegian Union of Food, Beverage and Allied Workers (Norwegian: Norsk Nærings- og Nytelsesmiddelarbeiderforbund, NNN) is a trade union in Norway.
The union was founded in 1923, as a split from the Norwegian Union of General Workers, and it immediately affiliated to the Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions.[1] The Norwegian Union of Hotel and Restaurant Workers merged into the union in 1927, but this section split away again in 1931, as the Hotel and Restaurant Workers' Union.[2]
In 1962, the union absorbed the Norwegian Bakery and Confectionery Workers' Union and the Norwegian Tobacco Workers' Union. In 1970, the Norwegian Union of Meat Industry Workers also joined.[3] By 1996, it had a membership of 36,374.[4] This has declined slightly, and in 2019, it had 28,254 members.[5]
