Macau Gets More Slot Machines

Macau visitors are in for a treat in the coming years as a result of the expansions in Macau’s slot machine industry. Not only is a new slot machine parlor scheduled to open next month, but it looks like Melco PBL has plans to open two to three more slot machines parlors every year. The slots industry is rapidly expanding in the next year, and Melco PBL will ensure that the expansion continues until the Macua market is saturated with slot machines.

Melco PBL is the company currently investing in Macua’s slot machine industry, and is a joint venture for both Melco International Development and Australia's Publishing and Broadcasting Ltd. Melco PBL already has a large share of the slot machines market in Macau—22% of what is termed the electronic gaming market. The company operates the Mocha Slots Club chain which boasts over 1,000 slot machines within the slots parlors.

The expansion will expand the company’s slot machine holdings by 200 to 300 slot machines per new slots parlor. And now, because of the recent subconcession purchase from Wynn Resorts, Melco PBL is now considered one of the major players in more than just slot machines. With the subconcession, Melco PBL plans to build hotels and resorts to support the gaming industry—their current plan is to open the City of Dreams mega-resort in 2008.
