Greektown executives approved by Board in Michigan
April 20, 2009
Greektown Casino-Hotel announced the approval of two
executives by the Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB). While both have been
advising Greektown pending regulatory approval by the MGCB, Randall A. Fine has
now been confirmed as Chief Executive Officer and Amanda Totaro has been confirmed
as Vice President of Marketing. Fine and Totaro are also the Managing Director
and Senior Vice President, Branding Practice, respectively, at The Fine Point
Group, the Las Vegas-based casino management and consulting firm retained by
Greektown to provide comprehensive operations and marketing management.
“We are very pleased with the Michigan Gaming Control
Board confirmation and are excited to officially assume these roles,” said
Fine. “Since commencing our work with the property in January, The Fine Point
Group has helped Greektown nearly double its profitability plan while
substantially increasing market share. As our involvement moves to the next
level, we are going to push even harder to offer the best value, the best
service, and the best product to each and every customer in the Detroit market,” he
added.
Since The Fine Point Group began advising Greektown
Casino-Hotel in January 2009, the property has increased its market share from
22.8 percent in January to 25 percent in March, according to MGCB figures, a
net increase of almost 10 percent.
