Announced earlier by Google in Twitter, you can now add custom business description in Google my Business, which serves as one of the main platforms for Business information in Local listings.
Earlier week Google bought a change in GMB which added an option to insert the date the business opened. While we see many times that Google fetches data from other websites and integrate them into the business listings, Google will probably roll out updates to have all the option editable directly from GMB dashboard.
