The sale process of Enjoy is still in the early stages, but it already has several interested parties in its assets.
According to the Chilean press, Logrand Entertainment, the main target as a possible buyer in recent months, is interested in acquiring the operator's positions. However, the rooms in Viña del Mar, Coquimbo and Pucón would be left out of the equation.
According to Diario Financiero, the company considers the prices paid for these permits “stratospheric”, so it would be more profitable to pay the guaranteed notes. In this way, other operators such as Dreams and Marina del Sol would have the opportunity to invest there.
On the other hand, Enjoy's perhaps most relevant asset, the Punta del Este casino, is the one that generates the greatest interest in international companies. There would already be advanced negotiations with five potential buyers, despite certain negative projections in this regard.
The imminent regulation of gambling in Brazil, which could include physical casinos, would be detrimental to the Uruguayan operation, whose main clients come from that country.
However, the Plaza Esteña is relevant beyond its games room, as it is a central destination for tourism in the region. In this way, it is very likely that it will remain one of the most important assets of the Chilean company.
