At the beginning of the year, the firm launched Smart Top Multi-Juegos, a platform that offers a unique concept in a compact cabinet. It optimizes the space and facilitates the adaptation in different environments.
FBM Gaming obtained the new ISO 9001:2008 certification in quality management for the factory located in Asia, where it leads the electronic bingo market. Additionally, the company possesses international security certifications UL Y CE, valid for the European Union and North America, respectively.
FBM’s Vice President remarked that the online bingo concept has already demonstrated its potential of attraction in several new territories. The company has signed important agreements related to their expansion in Asia and Europe, especially in Spain, with the acquisition of Vaprel shares in VPM, the Spanish company of Group FBM.
“The industry in general is growing. Macau casinos reach new records in sales each month, which shows the strength and magnitude of the Asian market. Companies have also turned their attention to Latin America and the chance to open new markets. Economic problems in Argentina have been one of the lowest points of the whole industry and also for FBM, due to importation problems, which prevent the installation of new machines,” answered Renato Almeida when consulted about his vision on the gambling industry worldwide.
“The prediction of the group for next year is to have all the platforms homologated for the American market, too. FBM plans a solid expansion in all America and other international markets. We will also perform new releases. For 2014, the company aims to expand its participation in international trade events.”
