Descripción
The organisation was founded in 1890 following early efforts by Belgian and Dutch unions in the 1880s. Initially based in Antwerp, it later moved to Bremen and Amsterdam. After a decline during World War I, it was re-established in 1918.
In 1958, the federation merged into the International Union of Food and Drinks Workers' Associations, which was renamed to include tobacco workers. Some affiliates instead joined the Plantation Workers International Federation.
