Boston-based Teamsters Local 25 has moved forward with its threat to protest Dunkin' Donuts. About 200 union members picketed Tuesday outside the company's corporate offices in Canton, Mass., to express their frustration over stalled negotiations with a distributor for the chain, reports WCVB TV 5 Boston.

From the story:

Dunkin' Donuts released a statement saying, "The Dunkin' Donuts Northeast DCP, a cooperative owned by regional franchisees, has informed us that they are bargaining in good faith, and that they intend to keep negotiating until they reach an agreement. Dunkin' Brands recognizes the rights of organized labor to conduct public demonstrations and express their views."
