Co-op Wholesale and Costcutter Supermarkets Group (CSG) have joined together in a new supply agreement.
Co-op Wholesale (previously known as Nisa) has supplied Costcutter since 2018, but the existing contract had been due to expire in December.
The groups claimed that the new deal would “unlock greater value for independent retailers”.
Katie Secretan, Managing Director of Co-op Wholesale, said: “I am delighted to announce this new agreement which goes further than just a supply deal; we are jointly focused on true partnership as the key ingredient for mutual success, as we collectively support independent retailers to grow through our market leading propositions.”
Dawood Pervez, Managing Director of Bestway Wholesale, said: “The continuation of our collaboration will see Costcutter stores continue to benefit from the market-leading full-service convenience model from Co-op Wholesale, including access to the iconic and best in class Co-op own brand products. Both businesses are committed to working together to continuously improve the offer, supporting retailer growth in an evolving market.”
