Aristocrat Licensed in Montana, Signs Exclusive Distribution Agreement With Grand Vision Gaming


LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwire - May 14, 2012) - Aristocrat Technologies recently entered the U.S. VLT marketplace by receiving its license in South Dakota. Now the company is quickly expanding in the arena, receiving its license in Montana, and signing an exclusive distribution agreement with Grand Vision Gaming to distribute Aristocrat VLT product across the state.

Grand Vision Gaming (GVG), a manufacturer of video gaming devices headquartered in Billings, Mont., will distribute Aristocrat's Player's World™ Reels, a product that is exclusive to the Montana market.

The unique arrangement between the two suppliers gives Aristocrat access to GVG's extensive network of strong, established relationships developed by GVG over the past several years.

Aristocrat Americas COO Seamus McGill said, "We are thrilled to be so quickly capitalizing on our entry into the U.S. VLT market, and we are very happy with this new agreement with Grand Vision Gaming. GVG has been a dynamic force in the Montana marketplace, and we are confident the partnership will be tremendous for both parties."

According to Tim Carson, one of GVG's four partners and a 33-year industry veteran, GVG and its affiliates are a powerhouse in the Montana market with more than 32 percent ownership of the state's 16,000-plus licensed machines. "GVG is thrilled about this innovative partnership with Aristocrat," Carson said. "Together, we are an undeniable force in the Montana gaming market, and we look forward to working closely with one of the world's leading gaming companies."
