UFCW 21 Member Story: Ana Brings Smiles to PCC

Ana Cuevas, Redmond PCC Meat Department

Ana Cuevas works at Redmond PCC! Ana started at PCC 14 years ago in the deli and was a cook for 9 years. To make more money to provide for her family, Ana spoke with management about transferring to the meat department. In fact, Ana’s father was a meat cutter in Mexico and owned a butcher shop there. She then started the meat apprenticeship program and has since moved up to the Lead Position (second to Meat Coordinator).

After she finished the meat apprenticeship program, Ana was able to buy a house. She became the first in her family to own a home after moving here from Mexico when she was 19 years old. In her time at PCC, Ana has been able to help her mom and her two sisters to move to America as well. Ana is always a bright and shining face in the meat department and helps to build one of the most vibrant and diverse meat departments in our stores.

Ana — we so appreciate all that you do to put a smile on your co-workers’ faces and are so glad you’ve been able to help take care of your family.
