Gall & Gall and Etos websites back online, apps remain unreachable

The websites for Gall & Gall, Etos, and Albert Heijn are back online following a recent cybersecurity incident at Ahold Delhaize, though some app features and delivery services remain restricted. While the investigation into the cause is ongoing, the company has confirmed no current evidence of data theft and normal supply chain operations have resumed.

The websites for retail chains Gall & Gall and Etos have resumed operations, allowing customers to place orders again online. However, their mobile applications remain offline as technical teams work to restore full service. These developments follow a broader cybersecurity incident that recently forced parent company Ahold Delhaize to take various systems offline as a precautionary measure.

Albert Heijn also restored its website and app functionality on Sunday, granting users access to bonus offers and recipes, though online grocery delivery services are not expected to return until Friday. The company has stated that there is currently no evidence that personal data was compromised during the breach. While the incident caused supply chain disruptions that led to empty supermarket shelves across the Netherlands, normal delivery schedules have since resumed, and store inventory levels are gradually returning to normal. Ahold Delhaize continues to investigate the exact cause of the digital disruption.
