Game-maker Andamiro USA has won US entertainment and dining destination company Dave & Buster's Entertainment’s Supplier Partner of the Year award.
Andamiro USA is the US subsidiary of South Korea's Andamiro, a developer and manufacturer of highly engineered amusement devices for arcades, FECs and other public venues.
Dave & Buster's operates more than 200 venues, including its newly acquired Main Event Entertainment FEC brand, in North America, and is one of the nation's largest buyers of amusement equipment.
The company's Supplier Partner of the Year award recognises its most valuable contributor, among all supply chain categories.
The award was presented to Andamiro USA president Drew Maniscalco and chief operating officer Min Lee during Dave & Buster's annual general managers' meeting at the Arlington Convention Center and Loews hotel, Texas.
"Receiving this award is an unexpected honour," Maniscalco said. "Likewise, Dave & Buster's is such an important partner to Andamiro, and not only as a buyer. The Dave & Buster's organisation and its general managers play a critical role in helping us design and test new games, providing valuable technical feedback and performance data. And this partnership has allowed us to build better games for the entire industry."
Among the recent Andamiro games deployed throughout the Dave & Buster's chain are Bobblehead Baseball, a new video redemption game featuring the bobble-headed likenesses of MLB's biggest stars, and Jurassic World, a muscle-memory challenge incorporating themes from the blockbuster Jurassic movies.
