Ritzio International, the European gaming clubs operator, has acquired 16 gaming locations in Croatia.

The gaming properties, which are located in 10 Croatian cities, including the capital, Zagreb, add to the 15 venues Ritzio already operates in the country.

The group plans to rebrand the current clubs into a Croatian version of its key Volcano brand, which has been spreading across Europe since 2007.

Ritzio now manages 1,197 gaming machines in Croatia.
