Gaming device maker Aruze Gaming America Inc. is expanding its presence on the European continent after bagging gaming licenses in Cyprus and Greece.

On Tuesday, Aruze announced that it had secured a license from the Cyprus National Gaming and Casino Supervision Commission to operate and supply gaming machines in the Republic of Cyprus Integrated Casino Resort (ICR) and its subsidiaries on May 15. Before that, the Hellenic Gaming Commission (HGC) approved Aruze’s request to operate as a gaming related contractor in Greece.

David Meacher, Aruze Gaming’s director of Business Development for Europe, has high hopes for the company’s expansion in Greece and Cyprus, since these two jurisdictions on the Mediterranean Sea are ripe with new business opportunities.

Meacher has touted Cyprus as the next major gaming location in Europe with the opening of Melco International Development Ltd.’s €550 million ($637 million) City of Dreams Mediterranean (CDM) and its satellite casinos.
