WINWIN celebrates its 20th anniversary and will donate 20 cents to Die Tafel Österreich for every coffee sold in 2024
WINWIN opened its first location in Mayrhofen im Zillertal 20 years ago.
20 years, 20 locations, 20 cents – WINWIN’s milestone anniversary will be celebrated through all of 2024. WINWIN opened its first location in Mayrhofen in May of 2004. 20 years later, WINWIN is Austrian Lotteries’ successful concept for an Austria-wide terrestrial offering of slot machines (so-called VLTs) with a total of 20 locations.
Throughout 2024, 20 cents will be donated to Die Tafel Österreich – which is also celebrating its 25th birthday this year – for every coffee sold. To mark its anniversary, WINWIN aims to continue to expand its social commitment at all locations throughout Austria and work together with Die Tafel Österreich to combat poverty, hunger and food waste.
Erwin van Lambaart, Director General of Austrian Lotteries, had this to say: “There’s hardly any other sector in the economy where socially responsible behaviour is of such central significance as it is in gaming. WINWIN stands for gaming with the highest possible level of player protection. All guests must register when they enter for the first time and receive their WINWIN Card, which authorises them to enter. Our social responsibility, however, goes far beyond player protection and responsible gaming. For us, it encompasses the entire spectrum of responsibility towards our society along the value chain in economic, ecological and, above all, social terms. Our employees practice this responsibility and offer an inviting, atmospheric and professional atmosphere at every WINWIN location, which shows that they are happy to be there for others. We want to demonstrate this with our new partnership with Die Tafel Österreich.”
Peter Simoner, Managing Director of WINWIN, added: “For our 20th anniversary, we were looking for a partner to complement our overall corporate social commitment, a partner who, like us, is active regionally and throughout Austria, which we are thanks to our 20 locations. We’re delighted that we’ve found that partner in Die Tafel Österreich and that we will be able to work together in 2024 to raise awareness of the importance of food for society and the environment, both regionally and throughout the entire country.”
Dr. Alexandra Gruber, Managing Director of Die Tafel Österreich, said: “Since 1999, we’ve been salvaging food that is still perfectly fit for human consumption and supplying it to people living in poverty via social organisations, free of charge. Demand is higher than ever before – not least due to inflation. We do our best every day to continue to expand our contribution to social and environmental sustainability. The commitment and support of WINWIN with all of its 20 locations in Austria helps us to achieve this.”
With around 80 games, WINWIN offers all its guests an extensive and varied slot machine experience. This includes a large selection of classics such as Book of Ra Deluxe, Lucky Lady’s Charm, Queen Cleopatra and many other exciting slot games. WINWIN focuses on quality and regionality with the food and beverages it has on offer. All its locations source their food and fresh ingredients from Austrian, mostly even regional suppliers. The culinary offering consists of selected wines and beers from Austria’s best and most popular vineyards and breweries, and coffee from an Austrian private roastery, Alt Wien, ensuring top-quality coffee, organic and Fairtrade-certified. Since the beginning of the year, WINWIN’s coffee has been fully in line with its new co-operation with Die Tafel Österreich.
WINWIN stands for the highest quality of service, ensured by around 170 highly trained employees at the various WINWIN locations providing guests with advice and the best possible support in the gaming and catering areas. WINWIN spoils its guests with a high-quality culinary offering at fair prices because good food and drink are a central part of socialising and well-deserved relaxation. The kitchen also conjures up sophisticated delicacies for occasional snacks.
