About Zonal Marketing Technologies App Marketing company in Stafford, United Kingdom
Zonal was established in 1979 when the McLean family identified the need for a solution to manage and control their hotel operations near Edinburgh. The solution was the first electronic-point-of-sale (EPoS) system on the market invented by Zonals founder the late Ralph McLean.
This early EPoS system was admired by legendary brewer Scottish amp; Newcastle who then adopted our system across their network of pubs providing both head office and site managers access to a wealth of information.
Ralph handed the reins over to his son Stuart who became CEO of Zonal in 1997. Alongside his talented team Stuart continued to grow and transform the company into what is now: the UKs largest hospitality technology company.
We now serve more than 16000 businesses from small independents through to large chains such as JD Wetherspoon Greene King PizzaExpress The Restaurant Group John Lewis Tesco and Virgin Trains.
