Albert Heijn Classico Olive Oil is a private-label product offered by the Netherlands' largest supermarket chain. The brand, AH (Albert Heijn), originated in 1887 in Oostzaan, Netherlands. As a retail brand, the olive oil is typically sourced from a blend of olives originating from various European Union (EU) and non-EU countries, predominantly within the Mediterranean region like Italy, Spain, or Greece, to ensure a consistent flavor profile known as 'Classico'.

The brand is owned by Ahold Delhaize, a major international food retail group formed by the 2016 merger of Ahold and Delhaize Group. While the product is sold specifically under the Albert Heijn banner, the ultimate corporate ownership lies with the Dutch-Belgian conglomerate headquartered in Zaandam. Production and bottling are often contracted to specialized oil refineries that handle private-label manufacturing for major retailers across Europe.
