Plans for an Asian Market
There has been no shortage of news these days about Bodog; the huge
international online casino gambling brand has announced a plan to really expand
the companies reach by local brand licensing and giving up some of the control
over the regional brands to licensed companies. Basically, a brand licensing
deal with Haydock Sports within the Asian market will see Haydock using the
internationally respected Bodog brand name to really build a strong foundation
within the Asian market and boost the presence of this quality brand throughout
Asia. Haydock is taking over a lot of the promotion of the Bodog brand and the
Managing Director at Haydock has recently released some of the company’s planned
strategy over the next couple of years in terms of entering the Asian online
casino gambling and gaming industry.
The Asian market presents some challenges on two fronts. Namely, the market is
absolutely enormous and though there is a lot of potential for growth within
this market the second problem contends with the fact that most of the Asian
market is still banning and blocking online casino gambling. China is certainly
waging a war against the internet in many forms and internet gambling happens to
be a key focus for the company. But Haydock has it’s mind set on the market and
the Bodog brand name to back up the companies planned entry into this market.
Managing Director Ian Dunning sport to Casino City with his plans for the online
gambling group – and they are no small matter. The company is planning to
establish itself as the largest online betting and gaming provider within Asia.
Haydock has a brand strong brand presence in the betting market already and the
coupled with the Bodog brand there is a lot of expectation that the new joint
effort will prove quite profitable. |
