Gala Coral have completed a deal to buy the VC Bet retail shops

I am pleased to announce that Gala Coral have completed a deal to buy the VC Bet retail shops owned by the Victor Chandler group.

We have purchased 41 LBO licences primarily based in Londonand the Home Counties.  Kevin Foster will be leading the project team integrating the new shops into the Coral business over the next few weeks.

In maintaining our growth momentum, this important acquisition (the first under Gala Coral stewardship) means that we have broken through the 1,300 shop barrier and now stand at 1,328 shops in the UK.
