About Zonal

Zonal is an enterprise hospitality technology provider (Edinburgh) for UK managed pub estates, multi-site restaurant groups, bars and hotels. It offers a full estate platform: EPOS, order and pay, bookings, kiosks, loyalty, stock and supplier management, and enterprise reporting. Pricing is bespoke and quote-led (its published all-in rental is on a 36-month term with a deployment fee), so it is built for larger groups rather than single-site independents.

Zonal was founded in 1979 and is headquartered in Edinburgh, United Kingdom.
