NOVOMATIC AND FRANCO ANNOUNCE A DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
Austrian Gaming Industries GmbH – AGI (subsidiary of Novomatic Group) and R.Franco América (subsidiary of R.Franco Group) have reached an agreement, whereby R.Franco América will become non-exclusive distributor of Novomatic gaming equipment in Colombia.
Novomatic equipment will be displayed at FADJA on the R.Franco América booth and all sales and support enquiries will be handled from there. Jens Halle, Managing Director AGI, commented: “It is with regret that we have to announce that we cannot be present in person in Bogota to officially launch what will be an important collaboration between AGI and R.Franco América. Sadly, the current air transport difficulties make this impossible but this in no way diminishes the importance of this new relationship which will bring Novomatic equipment directly to the Colombian market. We are absolutely confident that this new distribution arrangement will further enhance Novomatic’s growing presence in South America and will guarantee the levels of service and support that Novomatic customers have every right to expect. We wish the organizers of FADJA and all the many visitors that will attend a truly great show.”
“We are delighted to have reached a distribution agreement with AGI“, remarked Manuel del Sol, Managing Director R.Franco América. “It allows R.Franco América to expand their product and service offering, enabling us to better serve our customers and strengthens our leadership position in the Colombian market “.
