By Phil - 10 November 2015
Euro Games Technology has been reporting decent results in Georgia for several months, having installed 130 machines into the market.
Georgian operators have been snapping up games from the P-24/24 Up and P-24/24 St Slim Premier series, the Egypt Quest progressive jackpot system, the Vega Vision+ upright and slant top cabinets and the Premier R8 automated roulette. The Bulgarian manufacturer has installed products at Casino Peace at the Sheraton Hotel, Casino Campione, Casino Las Vegas, Casino Austria International at the Hilton Hotel, Casino Grand Intourist at the Hotel Intourist. Some of the operators are new partners for EGT, others, like Casino Las Vegas and Peace, have had long-term, fruitful relationship with the company.
Shota Amiranishvili, General Manager of Casino Peace, said: “Since EGT machines came into our casino, the visitors have played them every day. They have told us that these Premier slots give them the opportunity to stay in the game longer. And this is one of the advantages, related to the advanced mathematical models of EGT’s products. Players also enjoy the amazing graphics and high-quality sound of the machines. Their most preferred games from the Premier multi-game mixes are the fruit themed titles, especially Burning Hot, which is the highest rated one.”
Many casino operators in Georgia share their satisfaction with EGT’s products and technical support provided from the local office of the company. Founded in 2007, it is the only one of its kind in the country, representing a gaming machine manufacturer directly and servicing casino equipment from various other brands. It partners with all operators in the country, supplying land-based, as well as interactive solutions. In 2014, EGT had a market share of 25 per cent in Georgia while this year it has so far reached 33 per cent.
Radostina Valcheva, Director of EGT Georgia, commented: “If we maintain our sales growth we will soon be a major supplier of casino equipment in the country. Towards the end of 2015 we expect a few more important installations to take place, one of them in the Leo Grand casino in Batumi. Equally significant is our technical support services that cover the needs of all local operators. We opened a 24-hour line for emergency calls and are able to react within the day, or even immediately, depending on the case. So our policy is to stay close to our clients and to serve them with everything needed for their smoothly running business.”
