10 Local Jobs Created as Merkur Slots Opens New Entertainment Centre in Chelmsley Wood

Leading gaming company MERKUR Slots has opened a £200K entertainment centre on Coppice Way – creating 10 new local jobs in the process.
The opening is part of a nationwide programme that will see MERKUR Slots invest over £5 million on UK high streets over the next 12 months to open new venues, support local economies and create new jobs.
Mark Schertle, COO of MERKUR Slots’ parent company MERKUR Casino UK, said: “We pride ourselves on our continued investment in UK high streets, and so it means a lot to be able to support the local community and economy in Chelmsley Wood through the creation of these new jobs. Every new venue we open creates an average of 10 new local jobs and we have already generated over 600 jobs across the UK in the last 12 months through developing existing venues and opening new ones.”
The new Coppice Way venue features the latest bingo and digital slot machines, with the emphasis firmly on low stake gaming and pay-outs ranging from £5 to £500, and an extensive library of new and classic games. Customers also receive unlimited free refreshments.
“Our aim with this new state-of-the-art entertainment centre is to give both new and existing customers a unique gaming experience in an environment that reflects the scale of the investment. I’m sure those visiting over the next few days and weeks will be as excited about this new MERKUR Slots venue as I am,” added Mark.
