It wasn't the company running it, it was because they signed a labor agreement so at that point you had to join the union as per the contract. Kroger may have informed you but it wasn't a "company union" which makes no sense.
Managers of Kroger were in the decision making positions of the union. Call that whatever the hell you like.
