ICE exhibitor SPIELO International is entering the bar market in Spain through a recently signed contract with Costa Cálida, which gives Costa Cálida exclusive distribution rights for the type B market in Spain. Under terms of the agreement, approximately 1,000 delite cabinets will be installed across Spain during the first year, and increased numbers are expected for subsequent years.

“We are pleased to be working with such a strong distribution partner as Costa Cálida,” said SPIELO International’s Don Doucet, Vice-President of Business Strategy and Development. “We have an established presence in the Spanish Casino market, and our goal is to become a leading manufacturer in the Spanish type B market over the next few years, recreating the success we’ve had in Italy.”

“We are looking forward to a long-term business relationship with SPIELO International,” added Juan Nicolás Sánchez, Chief Executive Officer, Costa Cálida. ”We appreciate their collaborative approach, which welcomes our input on the selection of future games and products we offer, allowing us to respond to our players’ needs.”

A three-month field trial is already underway in the Murcia and Valencia regions, where SPIELO International’s delite cabinets have been installed in bars as well as in arcades.
