A contract between IGT Global Solutions and the operator of the French national lottery, La Française des Jeux (FDJ), has been extended for another three years.
IGT will continue to provide instant ticket games for another three years.
An important element in IGT securing the FDJ contract was IGT's dedication to responsible business practices across its global operations which are in alignment with FDJ's business goals and sustainability priorities.
These practices include sourcing paper from FSC-certified suppliers, using non-toxic inks and coatings and implementing processes designed to reduce emissions, ensuring environmentally conscious production without compromising innovation or quality of the tickets.
"In renewing our instant ticket contract for the coming three years, we were extremely interested in securing a partner who understands our business ambitions and shares our commitment to social and environmental responsibility," said Patrick Buffard, chief French lottery and retail sports betting business unit officer.
"IGT has established a strong understanding of FDJ's goals, and a keen awareness of its growth opportunities and sustainability commitments throughout our decades-long partnership," said Jay Gendron, IGT chief operating officer, global lottery.
"IGT's new three-year instant ticket printing contract with FDJ enables us to continue our collaboration, by leveraging our state-of-the-art printing facility and diverse game portfolio to meet FDJ's needs."
