Nedap has announced the expansion of its collaboration with Albert Heijn through the introduction of its Mobile Access technology at several of Albert Heijn's establishments and its affiliates, Etos, Gall & Gall, and Ahold Delhaize, throughout the Netherlands.
This development allows employees to enter office buildings and facilities securely via their smartphones using Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, thereby decreasing the dependency on physical badges and streamlining access management for greater convenience.

This initiative underscores a long-standing partnership between Nedap and Albert Heijn, aligning with the growing trend of mobile credentials within extensive retail networks.
By enabling employees to store access credentials on their devices, the implementation of near-field communication (NFC) technology facilitates seamless entry into secured areas, promoting efficient credential management and offering a scalable, forward-thinking solution to access control challenges.
Tom van Middendorp, Solution Consultant at Nedap, remarked, “Albert Heijn is taking a clear step by bringing mobile access to its employees. It makes access easier and more secure, using the devices people already rely on every day.” This transition embodies Nedap's commitment to supporting organisations in evolving towards mobile-centric access control systems.
