Chilean firm Enjoy to stop operating casino in Colombia

Enjoy - a company linked to the Martinez family and the US fund Advent - reported through a statement sent to the Commission for the Financial Market (CMF) that it puts an end to its casino operation on the island of San Andres. The company will focus its resources and efforts on the execution of projects in Chile, where it recently renewed the licenses of its casinos.

The end of operation of Enjoy in Colombia is given in advance, since the casino operator had a concession contract signed for a period of five years ending on February 19, 2016.

With respect to this decision, the General Manager of Enjoy, Gerardo Cood, commented: "When we made the decision to arrive in Colombia, we did it with a bet of smaller size, of 70 machines and 9 gaming tables, to know the market and the preferences of local players. Although it is a very attractive tourist destination, the profile of the visitors looks for another type of entertainment.”

"After the recent results of the Chilean tender, Enjoy will focus its resources and energy on the execution of the projects in Coquimbo, Viña del Mar, Pucón and Puerto Varas," concluded Cood.
