Hi, my name is Greg Murrell, and I am the regional manager for Marshalls World of Sport, Eastern Cape. I would like to alleviate any fears anyone may have about our application, and invite any concerned citizens to visit any one of our existing shops. We currently have branches at Rochelle Centre, Greenacres, at Commercial Centre, Sidwell, in Govan Mbeki Avenue in Central and in Durban Street, Uitenhage, at Hunters Retreat Hotel, as well as 29 additional shops nation wide.
Marshalls World of Sport have been in the bookmaking industry for 51 years, and I believe we deliver a quality product to our wide customer base. The addition of the Limited Payout Machines to which this Application refers to is simply another extension of our product offering, and that there is simply no basis that would warrant any objection by any person.
As a Licensee of the Eastern Cape Gambling and Betting Board, we have a strict “No Under 18’s Policy”, as prescribed by the Gambling and Betting Act.
If you still have concerns about our application after visiting our shops to see exactly what we offer, please fee free to contact me via email at greg@ebets.co.za
Thank you.
