From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Union of Bakers and Related Workers of Germany (German: Verband der Bäcker und Berufsgenossen Deutschlands) was a trade union representing workers in the baking industry in Germany.

The union was founded on 5 June 1885, at a meeting in Hamburg.[1] It was an early affiliate of the General Commission of German Trade Unions, and by 1904 had grown to 9,068 members.[2] In 1907, it merged with the Central Union of Confectionery and Gingerbread, to form the Central Union of Bakers and Confectioners.[1]
