To keep your business information on Google accurate and up to date, you can edit your Business Profile on Google. To help potential customers find and learn more about your business, you can change information like your address, hours, contact info, and photos.
If you haven’t already, add or claim your business, then verify your Business Profile so it's eligible to show up on Search, Maps, and other Google services.
You can also edit your information before you verify your business. The changes can include the name, category, address, hours, phone number, and website. After approval, these changes can be published before the business is verified on Google Search and Maps. Some business owners may still need to verify their business first before they edit their information.

This feature is available to food and drink, health and beauty, and services businesses. All businesses in these categories and have existing third-party menus will have access to the Menu or Services Editor.
Also, businesses using structured menus or service lists provided by third-party sources will see empty menu or service editors in their Google My Business dashboard. If there are third-party menu sources, any changes to the Menu, Services, or Product Editor will delete them.
