Helen Fletcher looks at how Spanish bingo supplier Global Zitro plans to move forward in 2011

Spanish gaming manufacturer Global Zitro will use 2011 to focus its efforts on research and development into new products as well as keeping a close eye on regulatory progress in international jurisdictions. "The goal," said company chairman Johnny Ortiz, "is to strengthen, expand and introduce a new generation of products that shake up the selection available in gaming halls worldwide."

From its headquarters in Madrid, Zitro\‘s international presence is further cemented through its experience and proven quality of products in different markets. In its native market of Spain, along with Mexico, Zitro\‘s generation of products for bingo halls and gambling rooms are well established and the manufacturer continues to move further towards taking the lead in providing electronic bingo machines and new games for bingo halls and gaming locations.

In Spain, the electronic bingo system Bet, became fully operational in bingo halls in Castille and Leon this month, demonstrating the manufacturer\‘s technological commitment to the sector and its confidence in the future development of new applications that provide variety to bingo halls.

"Bet is an intuitive, fast system featuring greater prize distribution," said Ortiz. "The games start simultaneously in all the locations and the customer benefits from an easy to understand display of the different types of prizes, ensuring a prize in each game, in each location, as well as a novel distribution of prizes in the overall network of locations."

Global Zitro\‘s strategy hinges on the principle of renewal and a regular infusion of new games. The current Zitro product catalogue features a wide range of special bingo games, multi-station roulette tables, poker tables and electronic bingo… All possible, once again, thanks to the company\‘s keen focus on research and development.

And it doesn\‘t stop there, in order to ensure operators are able to access the wide variety of products on offer, Global Zitro developed the Bluewave and Blackwave platforms. The manufacturer\‘s full selection of games are available on both platforms, which continues to expand featuring a range of themes - there are endless bingo choices and styles as evident in titles such as Bingopolis, Toro Torito, Double Bonus, Bingollywood, Reinda del Nilo and Fire along with many others to come during the next 12 months…
