Greece's Hellenic Gaming Commission has given the "green light" for casino license in the northwest Greece prefecture of Florina, which borders with North Macedonia, to a great extent, and with extreme southeast Albania, the so-called Prespes Lakes district.
The license, in fact, comes after the casino opened last Friday, operated by a consortium that includes the Tottis group as the biggest shareholder.
A total investment of nine million euros is cited, with 87 employees already hired, and a luxury hotel to open in tandem with the casino in the coming period.
The Florina casino is expected to rival a handful of casinos and gaming parlors located just north of the Greek border port of Idomeni, in the Gevgelija district on the Greece-North Macedonia frontier.
