Boldly Going Further
The 888 internet gambling games developer and internet gambling group has
announced that a division of the company is now moving into the South African
market. 888 is a highly respected gambling group in the international online
casino gambling industry and the company’s Dragonfish division has made some
very real progress in the recent months in terms of further market expansion and
targeted market penetration. 888 just announced that the Dragonfish brand is
moving into the South African market in partnership with the Tsogo Sun Gaming
Group to offer land gambling and betting options for the time being and then the
two companies will jointly move into offering online casinos and internet
betting products once the South African government passes through new
regulations.
The current South African regulations are in development by the government and
are actually stalled. Even so though, there is a very real expectation that the
new regulations will pass in the coming year and that online casinos will soon
be legalized within the market. Once that happens, Dragonfish will be perfectly
positioned within the market and with the name backing and respect of Tsogo Sun
to make a strong entrance into the online casino gambling and betting market in
the country.
Dragonfish’s expansion strategy is working well and the company has recently
entered into several arrangements where the partnership primly positions the
brand within new and emerging markets. 888 has made the chose to only operate
within legal online casino gambling markets and that is likely a strong choice
for the long-term brand development. Although the South African market is active
right now, the company is choosing to wait until the industry is fully legal. |
