"In R. Franco, we are interested in listening to those who know the most about slots"

Joaquín Franco had a meeting with executives of two bingo halls in the Province of Buenos Aires, Bingo Adrogué and Golden Jack, to talk about the new line of products which, according to the firm, “represent an unequivocal qualitative improvement for the Spanish brand, which, with the presence of its maximum figure, aims to adress to the Latin American market. The assembly of its factory has been performed in Argentina for four years and has expanded to Chile, Uruguay and Paraguay”.

After having a conversation with the slot manager of Bingo Adrogué, Franco commented: “I am pleased to be here, I think that it is a very constructive visit, because no one knows more about the conditions of a machine and the impact it will have than the people that are located here. We always listen to the clients. We can obtain very good results by coming here and talk with the people interested”.

What recommendations did you receive on the new R. Franco platform?

There are old machines that must not be withdrawn because people like them. The thing is that their technology is so old that we can hardly improve them. But the new platform is so powerful that we can incorporate everything they want and a bit more.

What is R. Franco current scope in Argentina?

We are slowly winning spaces. The fact of having a factory here is very important. The tax saving, which makes the difference between buying a machine overseas or acquiring it here, is important. We are constantly improving, and I think we will obtain what we want, which is to be located here, to have a place in the market and achieve new spaces little by little.

How is the merger with Sielcon working on?

It goes very well, because we both have things that the other one does not have. I think it is a good merger and its a whole process; we complement each other to be bigger and more competitive.

Besides, Hernán Lira, Slot Manager of Bingo Adrogué, made a balance on the visit of Joaquín Franco: “I wish to remark that it is really important that Recreativos Franco representative visit our slot halls”, and added: “The time he spent coming here is really very important, because it is also remarkable that they see their machines and how they are operating”.

“On top of that, as well as products of Recreativos Franco, I have pointed him that we have grown a lot in this latest platform, not only in the closeness to people but also in the product itself, so we are very satisfied and expect to have more Franco machines. We already have plenty of them, of all generations”, concluded Lira.
