In a recent development, Meituan-W (HKG: 3690) has introduced a new feature that displays location maps and environmental details for all merchants on its food delivery platform.

This functionality, now fully available, allows customers to view the store's position map and surroundings directly in the online signage area before placing an order. The feature enables users to first check where the store is located and what it looks like, then decide whether to proceed with their purchase.

As of the end of August, more than 2.7 million delivery merchants have already showcased their location maps and real, photographed environments through this system. Among them, over 1.2 million merchants have gone a step further by presenting continuous, unedited "one-shot" videos that offer a seamless view of their storefronts.
