Lauderdale-based Reel Games will be responsible with immediate effect for the marketing and after-sales service of Merkur Gaming products in the Central American and Caribbean region.
“With Reel Games, we have gained a strong and reliable partner in whose expertise we trust to further expand our presence in Central America and the Caribbean,” said Tomás Mieles, Merkur’s business development manager and LATAM sales coordinator, according to Intergame. “While we are already very successful in this region, we expect the collaboration with Reel Games to further significantly increase demand for our products.”
