Overview:

Danaco International is spread across a huge and lavishly built property that has it all set when it comes to entertainment with gaming tables running over 150 in number, alongside over 1000 hi-tech slot machines. There are 385 rooms at the Danaco International exclusively designed to offer the best in hospitality. Their flagship company is the Aristo International Hotel, which is a popular luxury casino that is situated on the border of Yunnan Province- China, in the north of Vietnam. The property was founded in the year 2002 as a five-star resort complex with nearly 400 rooms at the property, besides having several gaming tables and a license (permit) that authorizing up to 300 electronic gambling machines (EGMs). In a joint venture with the Government of Vietnam, Danaco is a leading casino operator in Vietnam and holds a 95 per cent in the business.

In Vietnam and Cambodia, Donaco has strategically placed its superior quality gaming assets. They include diversification of geography, with an aim to target the tourist?s markets of China and Thailand. Both businesses make profits from favorable tax rates and benefits in the border zone (for instance- target market travelers do not need visa permits and can use currency from their home country). Star Vegas Resort and Club?s acquisition in the year 2015 (01 July) has resulted in a dramatic growth in Donaco?s size and scale, delivering high earnings per share and major diversification benefits. This helps in representing the initial step in Donaco?s plan to roll up profitable businesses in the Asia-Pacific region for the luxury leisure hospitality segment. Initiatives are being taken to steer growth from the current assets, that includes steps being taken in the right directions to expand gaming facilities, reducing operational costs, increasing the use of current assets (asset optimization) and growing local tourism. The plan of Donaco is to reap the benefits of the Asia Pacific region?s appetite for the entertainment and leisure as well as to maximize and harness the expertise of the Board and the management in the gaming business.
