    <p><h2>Our B Corp Journey</h2></p>
    <p>
        Mealzo's road to B Corp certification began back in 2021. From the start, we aimed to do more than just transform the food service industry - we wanted to push the boundaries of our impact on the world. Achieving B Corp status was a challenging process, but it is aligned perfectly with our mission and values.
    </p>
    <p>
        Throughout this journey, we have fundamentally reshaped how we operate. From our supply chain and materials, to our support for partners and engagement with the community, every aspect of Mealzo has grown and changed. We have become more sustainable, expanded the ways we assist our partners, and strengthened our accountability at every level.

    <p><h2>What Does This Mean for Mealzo?</h2></p>
    <p>
        Achieving B Corp certification is a significant milestone, but it’s more than just an achievement — it’s a promise. This next step represents our ongoing commitment to continuous improvement. We will continue to evaluate and refine our efforts, ensuring that as we grow alongside our partners, we remain steadfast in our ethical and environmental responsibilities.
    </p>

Mealzo Now B Corp Certified - Committed to Sustainability

    <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.
    </p>

    <p>
        By integrating Google Business Profiles directly with Google Ads, we create a seamless experience that boosts visibility across both organic and paid results.

        <ul>
            <li>
                <h3>Enhanced Local Visibility</h3>
                Appearing in both the map pack and paid search results increases the chances of clicks from local customers searching for terms like “best takeaway near me.”

        </ul>
        <ul>
            <li>
                <h3>Smarter Targeting with Real-Time GMB Data</h3>

            </li>
        </ul>
        <ul>
            <li>
                <h3>Higher Ad Performance & ROI</h3>
                With deeper integration between your profile and ads, we reduce wasted spend and focus your budget on what actually converts.

        </ul>
        <ul>
            <li>

            </li>
        </ul>
        <ul>
            <li>
                <h3>Stronger Brand Trust & Engagement</h3>
                Customers are more likely to engage with ads from verified businesses with complete, well-managed profiles — leading to higher click-through rates and more orders.
            </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.
    </p>
    <p>
        Being part of this exclusive program means our partners benefit from:
        <ul>
            <li>The latest features and tools from Google</li>
            <li>Direct support and training</li>
            <li>A higher standard of service and online visibility</li>
        </ul>
        With advanced features like ‘order ahead,’ ‘menu search,’ and highlighting popular items our mission is to help your business thrive in the digital space.
    </p>
    <p><h2>Streamlined Ordering Direct from Google Search</h2></p>
    <p>
        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.
        <br/>Perks:
        <ul>
            <li>One-tap ordering</li>
            <li>Branded experience</li>
            <li>Zero third-party commission</li>
            <li>More completed checkouts</li>
        </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.
</p>
