A Regional Discovery Solution, Not Just a Business Directory
Built for whole destinations, not one listing at a time
Mapzest scales up as easily as it scales down. Local Visitor Economy Partnerships, Business Improvement Districts and Destination Management Organisations use it as a single regional platform covering every business, attraction and event across their area. Destinations with their own boundaries - a marina, a holiday resort, a country estate - get the same complete guide built around their own site. Whatever the shape of the destination, it's the same one real-time platform underneath.
- A single platform for LVEPs, BIDs and DMOs to market a whole destination
- Dedicated guides for marinas, holiday resorts and other bounded destinations
- Managed centrally, by individual businesses, or a mix of both
- The same live data across every channel, including the app, the web and a kiosk
Refreshingly Accurate Content
Listings are managed by the people who know them the best - keeping everything real-time and relevant
