VLT boost for AVS
Published:  14 January, 2011

After multiple delays and complications arising from its early approval of Scientific Games, the Illinois Gaming Board (IGB) reopened the contractor bidding process for the central computer system that will manage the state’s operator-run video lottery market.

Business experts predict a third-quarter 2011 launch for video lottery terminals (VLTs), with the system ultimately controlling a $300m annual market of 60,000 VLTs in approximately 10,000 taverns, truck stops, fraternal organisations and other alcohol-licensed locations.

But whenever the debut of VLT operation occurs, American Vending Sales (AVS) of suburban Chicago will have a prominent role – global gaming-machine giant International Game Technology (IGT) has agreed to give AVS exclusive rights to distribute its equipment to Illinois operators.

AVS is a 40-year-old full-service amusement and vending distributor. Its broad customer base extends statewide. The firm offers equipment sales, parts supply and comprehensive machine repair and refurbishment.
