Albert Heijn Sour Cream

Albert Heijn Sour Cream is a private-label dairy product offered by the Netherlands' largest supermarket chain. The product is specifically designed for cold preparations and contains 10% fat. The milk used in this product is sourced from cows that graze in Dutch pastures for a minimum of 120 days a year, aligning with the brand's commitment to local agricultural standards.

The Albert Heijn brand has a long history, dating back to 1887 when its founder, Albert Heijn Sr., took over his father's grocery store in Oostzaan. Over more than a century, it evolved into the dominant retail force in the Netherlands. Today, the brand is owned by Ahold Delhaize, a global retail leader formed by the 2016 merger of the Dutch Ahold and the Belgian Delhaize Group. While Ahold Delhaize operates globally, the Albert Heijn brand remains deeply rooted in its Dutch heritage, with most of its private-label dairy products produced within the Netherlands to ensure freshness and support local supply chains.
