It’s safe to say that the unprecedented situation has hurt Canada’s land-based gambling industry, but now the sector seems to have put the challenge behind it. River Rock Casino Resort in Richmond, British Columbia, appears to be trying to overcome the lockdown measures issued as funds flow from real estate to city coffers recover to pre-shutdown levels.
Located at 8811 River Road, Richmond, BC V6X 3P8, River Rock Casino is the city’s main economic power. It is one of the state’s leading premium casino entertainment venues, with the gaming floor offering a wide selection of table games and slot machines. Meanwhile, there are other amenities such as hotels, restaurants, indoor swimming pools, and spas for visitors to enjoy.
Richmond Casino appears to be doing pretty well after struggling with the casino industry due to closures in 2020 and 2021. The city’s latest budget is projected to reach C$14.5 million, which is projected to reach C$14.8. City officials say the city earned C$3.7 in gaming revenue from casinos in the first quarter of this year.
The figures suggest gaming facilities have fully recovered from the impact of unprecedented conditions as they exceed quarterly payments before 2020 that are catastrophic for the industry. Last year, officials expected Dorsey to receive C$14.5 million, but unfortunately, at the end of the fiscal year, Dorsey received C$1.9 million less than that.
Under the current contract, the city has earned 10% of casino net income, contributing significantly to the local economy, suspended operations for more than 14 months in March 2020 with other casinos in the province, and resumed work in July 2021, but affected its performance under capacity and health-related protocols.
It should be noted that the funding the city of Richmond receives from the Great Canadian Entertainment Game Hotspot supports many initiatives around the region. Some of them include funding for RCMP departments, repayment of municipal debt, grants and funding for council projects. Meanwhile, the remaining 4 million Canadian dollars are usually funneled into capital reserves.
This month, Great Canadian Entertainment revealed that River Rock Casino Resort in Richmond has received the prestigious Rick Hansen Foundation Accessibility Certification for its efforts to accommodate accessibility needs. It was another example of the casino’s commitment to providing accessibility and inclusivity to all employees and customers.
The Rick Hansen Foundation Accessibility Certification is an independent third-party evaluation that evaluates buildings and facilities based on a variety of accessibility criteria, including entrances, elevators, toilets, and parking lots, while the RHFAC Certification means that those who need access can thoroughly enjoy all amenities at certain offline destinations.
