Casinos Austria International has booked an increase in revenues for fiscal 2006, as the Vienna-based casino consulting, development and management company continues to expand across the globe.
At a recent press conference, Casinos Austria said revenues at its 63 international casino operations rose by 12.1 per cent year-on-year to a record €990m, with guest numbers for the period growing by 2.5 per cent to 16.6 million.
Highlights for the 2006 business year included the opening of Grand Casino Brussels in the Belgian capital in January; the award of the licence for the new casino in the central Chilean city of Los Angeles in July; and the acquisition of a majority shareholding in its long-term partner in Argentina, ENJASA, in December.
The company said 2007 has already begun on a positive note, with continued growth in existing operations and new developments in a number of key markets, including further acquisition projects in Europe, Asia and South America.
