UK gaming operator Sceptre Leisure has secured a new contract to supply leisure machines to the Marston's pub chain.

The contract will run for three years commencing this month and succeeds the previous three-year deal agreed in 2008. Sceptre has also been given the opportunity to increase the number of machines supplied to Marston’s and will continue to supply both the managed and tenanted/leased divisions.

This contract follows other recent contract wins including Punch Pub Company, SA Brains, The McManus Pub Company and Daniel Thwaites.

Ken Turner, Sceptre’s chief executive, said: "It is great to be able to announce that another of our major clients has not only renewed its contract with Sceptre but has decided to extend it further. This contract win, along with the other significant wins announced earlier this year, has allowed us to continue to grow market share and progress towards our target of becoming the largest machine operator within the UK pub market."
