Merkur Group granted a manufactures and distributors licence in Nevad
Michael Gauselmann, chairman of the supervisory board of the Merkur Group, is delighted, as it was under his leadership that Merkur was granted the licence for the first time: “With approval from Nevada, this moment serves to highlight and underscore the Merkur Group’s legally compliant and forward-looking approach in all areas without exception.” With the words “Welcome back to the industry,” the Nevada Gaming Commission sent off the board of management and the supervisory board – wishing them a successful future.
In addition to obtaining the licence, the approval for the acquisition of Gaming Arts LLC represents another pivotal key element for the Merkur Group in officially reentering the North American market as a certified manufacturer. The two companies have enjoyed a trusted strategic partnership that has already yielded mutually beneficial synergies. After thorough preparation, this collaboration will soon culminate in the acquisition by the Merkur Group.
“The close and constructive partnership with Gaming Arts LLC has significantly contributed over the past months to successfully establishing all necessary prerequisites for the licensing as well as the upcoming acquisition,” explained Felderhoff. “We are deeply grateful for the excellent cooperation.”
Applying for the Nevada licence was a logical step in the Merkur Group’s intensified international expansion strategy. “Business conditions in our home market, Germany, have become increasingly challenging due to tightening regulatory frameworks. Nevertheless, together with the entire industry, we remain confident in the long-term prospects of the German gaming market,” explained Felderhoff. “Our many years of experience and our sustained success provide a solid foundation for intensifying our focus on international gaming markets and establishing the Merkur brand abroad.”
The company has already achieved this in various European markets and across South America over the past decades. “Our re-entry into the North American casino market will significantly accelerate the international growth of the Merkur Group and place it on an even more solid footing,” Felderhoff concluded.
David Colvin, owner of Gaming Arts LLC, commented: “We congratulate Merkur for achieving this outstanding milestone and we welcome them to the state of Nevada”.
