It is understood the retailer may consider a renewed deal with Nisa, or a strategic alliance with a UK multiple, rumoured to be Asda.
A spokesperson for Costcutter told just-food that “negotiations are under way for a deal” but declined to comment beyond that.
A spokesperson for Asda said: “We never comment on market speculation like this”. Nisa did not return a request for comment.
