Sustainability is a complex subject. Albert Heijn wants to make sustainability easy for its customers. Sustainable eating is eating with respect for people, animals and nature, without wasting food, plastic and unnecessary CO2 emissions. Together with customers, employees and suppliers, we work on concrete projects. We stimulate a healthy lifestyle, less packaging, less food waste, clarity about products and everything that is better for the climate.

(Social) eating is not a given for everyone. That is why, through our 'Voor Elkaar' platform, we are committed to making the Netherlands a little better, healthier and more social. We work together with three permanent charities: Voedselbanken Nederland, the Rode Kruis and Resto VanHarte.
