U.S.-based casino operator Century Casinos Inc. has expanded its footprint into the Polish gambling market with yet another casino license secured in the country.

Century announced before the Nasdaq Capital Market that the Polish government has awarded its unit, Casinos Poland Ltd. with a casino license, bringing the total number of its gambling halls in Poland to eight.

Casinos Poland also won the renewal of licenses for its seven casinos despite criticisms on the official awarding process, according to Century.

In total, Casino Poland has three casino licenses in Warsaw and five casino licenses in Wroclaw, Katowice, Bielsko-Biala, Krakow, and Lodz. The casino operator said at least six casinos are already in operation. Century expects the third casino in Warsaw and the casino in Lodz to open next month.
