Definition

Local business schema is a schema.org structured data type (LocalBusiness) used to mark up a business’s name, address, phone number, hours, geo coordinates, and service area, with business categories typically specified by a more specific LocalBusiness type or the additionalType property. It is the structured data foundation for local knowledge panels, local pack results, and AI-generated local recommendations. Local business schema translates a physical business’s identity into machine-readable form. Combined with consistent NAP citations and a fully populated Google Business Profile, local business schema gives AI systems an unambiguous local entity record. For Hawaii businesses, adding areaServed fields for specific islands and neighborhoods extends basic local schema into precise geographic entity associations.
