Victor Chandler Moves To South Africa
11th December, 2009
Online bookmaker Victor Chandler has announced the application for a south African license has been granted and as a result the company will now base its operation in Cape Town.
To celebrate the occasion the London based company has launched a new world cup mini website which provides the latest team and tournament news in addition to updated tables and fixtures.
This isn’t the first time Victor Chandler has expanded overseas. It was one of the first bookmakers to move offshore when it moved to Gibraltar in 1999 and the Far East in the early 1990’s.
“We are naturally excited about this opportunity,” said Michael Carlton, CEO for Victor Chandler.
“The Victor Chandler brand fits perfectly with the South African market. Alongside offering a South African-specific website to customers, we will also be creating numerous employment opportunities. We are really proud to be involved in a country where sport is so entrenched in its culture. I will be investing locally over the next few months in order to launch our full range sports betting service in time for the World Cup.”
