Supermarket operator Ahold’s websites, app remain offline 5 days after cyber incident
Websites and online delivery services at grocery chains belonging to Dutch supermarket operator Ahold remained offline for a fifth day on Friday following what the company has described as a “cybersecurity incident” that prompted it to shut down some of its own IT systems.
An Ahold spokesperson said the parent company cannot comment about the situation at its individual chains. Its US brands, which include Stop & Shop, Giant Food, Hannaford and Food Lion, are collectively one of the largest food retailers in the United States. Physical stores remain open.
