    <p>
        <span style="font-weight:bold"><a href="https://mealzo.co.uk/"> Mealzo </a></span> is proud to announce that is now officially recognised as part of the Google My Business Provider Program. By partnering, we gain exclusive access to the latest tools, insights, and strategies to manage our loyal partners' online presence on Google Maps and Search. This means early access to smarter advertising tools and options, greater analytics, and even more customers ordering direct through Mealzo.
    </p>
    <p><h2>What the Partnership Means</h2></p>
    <p>
        Collaborating with Google brings several exciting benefits. Our partners  across the UK now enjoy greater exposure on Google Search and Maps. This means that when customers search for takeaways or restaurants nearby, their businesses will appear more prominently—leading to more traffic and more orders.
    </p>
    <p>
        Google's Unified Ordering enhances our partner's customer experience from the very beginning. The journey from discovering a restaurant on Google to placing an order is streamlined into just one tap. This seamless experience is available across both mobile and desktop platforms, whether customers search directly or through Google Maps.
    </p>
    <p>
        Enhanced visibility helps build trust, as customers are more likely to choose businesses that are well-represented on Google. Through the Google My Business Provider Program, we help our partners create and manage complete, verified profiles — ensuring they meet all key visibility factors needed to attract new customers on Google Search and Maps.

            <li>

        </ul>
    </p>

    <p><h2>Why Did Mealzo Partner with Google?</h2></p>
    <p>
        This partnership is a major milestone in our mission to support restaurants. Google officially recognises Mealzo for its expertise in managing Business Profiles, Local SEO, and Ads — tools that help our partners thrive.

        Thanks to our integration with Google’s ordering system, we’ve unlocked direct-ordering capabilities from your restaurant’s Google profile. Here’s how it works depending on your region:
    </p>
    <p><h3>Unified Ordering </h3></p>
    <p>
        Google shows “Order Pickup” and “Order Delivery” buttons—linked directly to your Mealzo page.

        </ul>
    </p>
    <p><h3>Non-Unified Ordering  </h3></p>
    <p>
        Google shows a “Place an order” link, which also redirects to your Mealzo ordering system.
        <br/>Perks:
    <ul>
        <li>No commission fees</li>
        <li>Full control of your customer flow</li>
        <li>Easy activation with no setup effort on your end</li>
    </ul>
    Mealzo handles it all—making sure your listings are optimised, fast-loading, and ready to convert.

        In the past 12 months, Mealzo has pushed boundaries, reaching new customers in fresh locations and extending our support to local communities.
        The year kicked off with a bang as we exhibited at <span style="font-weight:bold"><a href="https://mealzo.co.uk/blogs/2024-events/celebrating-'what's-cooking-2024'!-"> What’s Cooking 2024?</a></span> and the <span style="font-weight:bold"><a href="https://mealzo.co.uk/blogs/show/mealzo-impresses-at-the-restaurant-show-in-nec-birmingham"> UK Food & Drink Expo </a></span> in Edinburgh and Birmingham. These events gave us a chance to meet thousands of small business owners who are trying to break free from high commission rates and are eager to embrace Mealzo’s zero commission model, welcoming existing partnerships while forging new ones.
        This summer, we put ourselves front and centre in diverse, vibrant communities. We proudly supported and celebrated the LGBTQ+ community by participating in Glasgow's Pride March, showcasing Mealzo’s ongoing commitment to inclusivity and social responsibility. At the <span style="font-weight:bold"><a href="https://mealzo.co.uk/blogs/festival/mealzo-makes-a-mark-at-foodies-festivals"> Foodies Festivals </a></span> in Glasgow and Edinburgh, we engaged with families, offering fun and exciting exclusive ‘Spin to Win’ prizes, while big names entertained the crowds. Lastly, we tapped into the next generation by connecting with thousands of students at Glasgow's Freshers Fair. With exclusive discounts and prize giveaways, we not only generated buzz but also introduced them to the Mealzo platform and partners local to them for their next takeaway.

    <p><H2>Fuelling Orders with Saver Campaigns</H2></p>
    <p>
        This year, Mealzo achieved remarkable success in supporting our partners through successful marketing campaigns, propelling order numbers to new heights and boosting business across the board. At the beginning of the year, we introduced the Saver Sunday campaign, offering family-focused customers a new incentive to order big with their local takeaways, which resulted in a noticeable difference in order size for our partners.
    </p>
    <p>
        Building on this momentum, our Juicy Wednesday campaign quickly captured attention across the nation, with thousands using the £4 off discount code to save on their mid-week takeaway. By creating excitement among customers through layered marketing, we delivered sustained growth for the growing number of partners taking part, making their Wednesdays as busy as Fridays!
    </p>
    <p><H2>Bold Billboards in Birmingham </H2></p>
    <p>
        Alongside our digital efforts, Mealzo expanded its presence in the physical world by spreading the highly successful billboard campaign from the central belt of Scotland to the West Midlands. By illustrating the best that Mealzo has to offer with bold visuals of delicious discounts, for months dozens of streets were illuminated across the length and breadth of Birmingham. As a result, the presence of Mealzo in the area has never been stronger, with a sizeable increase in website and app users being registered across the campaign.

    <p><H2>Our Commitment to Change </H2></p>
    <p>
        This year Mealzo was honoured to receive the <span style="font-weight:bold"><a href="https://mealzo.co.uk/blogs/partnership/beyond-your-plate,-how-mealzo-supports-the-1-percent-for-the-planet-impact-fund"> 1% for the Planet </a></span> certification, marking a significant milestone in our journey toward sustainability. This recognition means that 1% of every order placed through Mealzo directly contributes to environmental causes, to build towards a more sustainable future for all.
    </p>
    <p>
        The team also had the incredible privilege of attending the bi-annual Malawi Tomorrow charity event. We are proud to have been part of such a meaningful cause dedicated to creating lasting change and building a brighter future for communities in need. As we look ahead, we remain committed to supporting impactful efforts like Malawi Tomorrow, striving together to make a difference one step at a time.
    </p>
    <p>
        During the Christmas Season, the team had the honour of volunteering with Kindness Homeless Street Team Glasgow, during a time of year when giving back holds special meaning. By donating essential supplies, volunteering in the soup kitchen, and providing essential items to those needing an extra hand, we cement our dedication to supporting and giving back to local communities.

    <p><H2>Shaping the Future of Food Service Technology </H2></p>
    <p>
        At the heart of Mealzo’s mission lies our unwavering commitment to advancing the technology relied upon by thousands of takeaways, restaurants, cafés, and small businesses across the UK. In 2024, we invested in our core hardware, the EPOS system, improving both their form and function. While the upgraded software runs faster and with less power for a better performance, the sleek but sturdy new design ensures durability needed in the day-to-day of the food service industry.
    </p>
    <p>
        Similarly, we took significant strides forward in our software, including a complete refresh of our ZoPortal business management app. This wasn’t just a cosmetic upgrade; we packed the interface with new features, including temperature control and enhanced visual financial reporting, making it more indispensable than ever for our partners.
    </p>
    <p>
        This year also marked the introduction of a range of NFC technologies at competitive prices, designed exclusively for our loyal partners. Our Smart Counter and NFC Table Ordering systems, which offer customers new ways to order, proved to be a huge success, with hundreds within a few months of their launch being installed into takeaways and restaurants. The Google Business Review Stands was also popular, by enabling businesses to enhance their visibility and grow orders by making it easier for customers to leave a review.
    </p>
    <p><H2>2025: A New Chapter Begins </H2></p>
    <p>
        As 2024 draws to a close, we’re gearing up for even greater things ahead as Mealzo is only getting bigger and better! With exciting plans and more announcements to come, the future looks brighter than ever. To our incredible partners, we extend our heartfelt thanks for your trust and collaboration throughout this year, as well as the new partners we've welcomed into Mealzo family.

    <p>
        The Edinburgh and Glasgow Foodies Festivals transformed the city parks into culinary havens!
    </p>
    
    <p>
        Mealzo had a brilliant time at the Edinburgh and Glasgow Foodies Festivals over the first two weekends of August. From the moment we set up our stand, we were inundated with enthusiastic visitors eager to explore the festival's offerings, from the delicious food and drinks to the exciting activities and cooking classes. Whether you were after mouthwatering Caribbean dishes, juicy lobster rolls, or ice-cold mocktails, both festivals had something for everyone. With performances from big acts such as Blue, Peter Andre, and Scouting for Girls, as well as local favourites, the parks were filled with excited visitors from opening to closing every day.
    </p>
    <div><img src="https://files.mealzo.co.uk/SiteContent/OurBlog/MealzoFoodiefestivals.png" Alt="Mealzo - Foodie festivals" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; display: block; width: 80%" /></div>
    <p>
        We had a great time offering everyone the opportunity to 'Spin To Win' our promotional wheel to win excellent prizes! Festival goers from all over the UK joined us to try their luck, with queues forming rapidly. Those who won walked away with sunglasses, water bottles, travel mugs, sweets, and more! It was inspiring to see so many people engaging with Mealzo and their interest in our merchandise, receiving nothing but positive feedback all weekend. Many consumers also stated they'd switch to Mealzo when ordering their next takeaway, knowing what we offer and stand for.
    </p>
    
    <p>
        As the UK's largest zero-commission online food ordering platform, Mealzo was proud to be involved in both weekends, demonstrating the best food Scotland's central belt had to offer. It was fantastic meeting so many new faces, as well reconnecting with our wonderful existing customers. We had great conversations under the bright summer sun, celebrating our love for good food together with exclusive discounts and spreading the word about our partners in their communities.
