In a move to broaden its B2C product portfolio across North America and the Caribbean, NOVOMATIC Americas Sales announced the extension of its distributor contract with APEX PRO Gaming covering now North America and the Caribbean, plus the acquisition of selected assets of APOGEE GAMING.
APOGEE Gaming has been successfully introducing and distributing APEX products in most of the US and Canada for the past six years.
With over 30 years of experience in gaming, Jean-Louis Drapeau, the General Manager of APOGEE GAMING will join NOVOMATIC Americas as a consultant and will continue making a strong contribution in offering APEX PRO GAMING equipment to more operators in North America on behalf of NOVOMATIC Americas Sales and will join and work together closely with the NOVOMATIC Americas Sales team.
APEX has a reputation for strong innovation – NOVOMATIC has a reputation for cutting-edge technology married with great games. Operators will be getting the best of both talented gaming organizations from now on after joining forces in North America.
Asked about the extended distributorship and acquisition, Rick Meitzler, CEO of NOVOMATIC Americas commented, “Operators are looking for new gaming solutions and floor optimization strategies. APEX and APOGEE have placed great focus on supporting them in every way. With the experience of Jean- Louis and the strong performance of the APEX product lines, we believe in a mutually beneficial relationship between the companies and our customers. We have found a great partner in APEX and the APOGEE team.”
“We are excited to begin 2023 with this tremendous growth effort, “ said “JL” Drapeau. I look forward to being able to work together and utilize our combined experience of these leadership teams which will be of tremendous value moving forward.”
“We have been working on this for months and it is exciting when we are bringing some of the best products together from around the globe, and marrying that with such an experienced gaming team,” said Meitzler. APEX’s technology will rapidly increase the overall output for NOVOMATIC Americas, taking us to the next level of exceptional growth.
Meitzler added: “NOVOMATIC Americas and APEX are all well established and recognized. We are all incredibly excited about this development and we can’t wait to get to work, delivering the new products and services in order to help grow our presence in the North American and Caribbean market.”
