Zonal

Zonal is the leading UK family-owned technology provider, offering a comprehensive, integrated suite of technology solutions to more than 16,000 hospitality and leisure businesses across the country.

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 Zonal’s founder, the late Ralph McLean.

This early EPoS system was admired by legendary brewer Scottish & 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 UK’s largest hospitality technology company.

We now serve more than 16,000 businesses, from small independents through to large chains such as JD Wetherspoon, Greene King, PizzaExpress, Stonegate, Mitchells and Butlers The Restaurant Group, and John Lewis. With more than 40 years behind us, we have a wealth of knowledge and expertise to offer businesses, new or established, large or small, across the hospitality sector. 75% of the UK pub sector is now powered by Zonal.

Employing 600 staff across the UK, and proud of its award-winning heritage, Zonal is committed to giving back to the community. Zonal has a long tradition of giving back to charitable causes. In the last few years our teams have climbed Mount Kilimanjaro, run The London Marathon and taken on the Great Wall of China challenge – all in the name of good causes! We raised over £120,000 for our previous adopted charity, Hope for Children, and are proud to have been awarded Best Corporate Partner for three consecutive years at their annual awards ceremony. In addition to our own initiatives, through our integration with the digital charity box Pennies and our partnership with Pub Aid, we are also actively involved in facilitating & promoting the great work the hospitality industry does in raising huge amounts for Charities the length and breadth of the U.K. We are passionate about giving something back to the community and are delighted to now be working in partnership with Only a Pavement Away.

ABK

“The Aktien Brewery is in Kaufbeuren Bavaria is where they have been brewing beer since 1308 (considerably longer than most of their German counterparts) & 200 years before the German Purity Laws of 1516 the famous Reinheitsgebot…”

“Today, the Aktien Brewery continues to exclusively use only the finest locally grown Hallertau hops and grains from the same local farms they have been using for over 700 years”.

It is therefore one of the oldest and also one of the most decorated breweries in the region

Of all the many beers produced, the vast majority have never been supplied outside a 30km radius of the town and we have selected four on draught for the UK market – 4.2% Fels, 5.0% Hell, 5.0% Dunkel & a 5.3% Hefeweizen.. The 5.0% Hell has just been awarded ‘Supreme Champion at the 2018 International Beer Challenge Awards’.

Various support is also available including ‘Meet The Head Brewer’ and Educational Trips to the Brewery.

We’ve been Brewing Beer since 1308. Over 700 and we’re still Brewing strong. For us, its always been a craft.

Our award winning Bavarian beers produced in Kaufbeuren use only four of the finest ingredients: Barley, Hops, Yeast and Pure Water.

All other ingredients are banned.

We give our Beers sufficient time to mature within the storage Cellars to get its unique taste – six to ten weeks depending on the Beer type from Brewhouse into Keg or Bottle.

Beds & Bars

Led by CEO Keith Knowles operates 21 award-winning backpacker hostels, bars and pubs across Europe spanning 13 cities and 9 countries with over 750 employees. St Christopher’s Inns, Belushi’s and The Flying Pig are just some of the well-known brands within the company. As a result, Beds & Bars has been featured in the Sunday Times Top 100 fastest growing companies in the UK and and in 2016, the company achieved IIP Platinum status. Beds and Bars was born in Hammersmith in West London in 1964 by Keith’s father, where the family owned pubs in the area in the 60s.

Beds and Bars is a leading operator of tourist accommodation and entertainment venues in Europe. With backpacker hostels, bars and traditional British pubs, in 10 cities and seven countries, the diversity of our offer mirrors the diversity of our customers. At the core of what we do are the four cornerstones of the experience we strive to deliver – one that is Safe, Secure, Fun and Value for money. When we get this right, the beds fill the bars and the bars fill the beds.

We both come from pub industry backgrounds and, between us, we have over 65-years of experience. In the beginning we identified a niche in the budget accommodation market and focused on the backpacker sector. Over the last two-decades we have taken the original model of 50-beds above a pub and evolved it into a concept that involves bespoke buildings with more than 500-beds.

We are always searching for opportunities to introduce our brands to new markets, and establish businesses at home in the UK, and abroad. This makes perfect sense to us – given that our sector is set to grow and outperform the more established accommodation markets. To that end we are currently considering partnerships around the world.

We seek to enhance, develop and enrich our team, and customers alike. We never lose sight of the important people in our lives. The fun factor of life is our priority.

Big Hug Brewing

Big Hug came together with a passion to create the beers that we want to drink but to also be a part of the movement. To help drive craft beer forward, make a difference along the way and to take great, flavoursome beer to the masses.

Three people self funding we don’t own a brewery but that’s part of our story. That’s what makes us that little bit different. We spent months looking for the right location that would give us all that we needed plus the opportunity to expand but we just couldn’t find one.

So we are Hobo’s..a homeless brewery who work with some of the best in the business. People that we now call friends who have helped us develop and allowed us to use their experience, knowledge, facilities and time, coupled with our own unique recipes to bring you some great beers.

Since we formed in 2014 it was important for us to try and give a little something back, to develop a social conscience initiative(s) with the work that we do in selling and creating craft beer.

On launching we worked with an initiative to help save the rainforest but in 2016, having not been back to Brighton for 9 months, Matt was blown away by the increased numbers of homeless people on the street in Brighton and set up an initiative called Hugs4Snugs. It’s a simple concept but fits with our Hobo ethos and allows us to try and help homeless people on a local level to whoever we are working with.

A venue nominates a local homeless charity, we give the venue some free beer and anyone that donates an item of clothing, receives a free beer on us. Hugs4Snugs. Simple. The launch of OAPA has now given us the opportunity to formalise a relationship with a charity that we feel we have a natural synergy with and can hopefully help grow.

If you would be interested in running a Hugs4Snugs event please contact us, we’d love to hear from you.
