Federated Millers and Manufacturing Grocers Union
Full name Federated Millers and Manufacturing Grocers Employees' Association of Australasia

Merged into National Union of Workers
Country Australia

Federated Millers and Manufacturing Grocers Union was an Australian trade union. It represented workers in food processing and manufacturing industries.

The Federated Millers and Manufacturing Grocers Union was formed through the amalgamation of two pre-existing unions, the Federated Millers and Mill Employees' Association of Australasia and the Manufacturing Grocers' Employees' Federation of Australia. Both unions represented relatively small memberships, and amalgamated as part of a period of union rationalisation encouraged by the ACTU.

The new union did not last long as a separate entity, and in 1992 it amalgamated with the recently formed National Union of Workers. The new union was formed from several pre-existing organisations, the largest and most influential being the Federated Storemen and Packers Union.
