Macau’s Casino Grandview, a satellite operation under the license of SJM, is going to officially cease operations at 11:59pm on Wednesday, July 30th.
According to an announcement by SJM, the closure is ‘ahead of schedule’ but is ‘in line with overall business planning and commercial considerations’.
The gaming concession holder indicates that ‘all gaming tables currently operating at the location will be redeployed to other casinos of the company’.
Regarding chips, deposits, or cash rebates accumulated at Casino Grandview unredeemed after its closure, SJM notes that holders ‘may visit the cage at Casino Casa Real […] to arrange follow-up handling from 31st July 2025 onwards’.
The group furthers that it ‘will ensure that all customer entitlements are duly honored’.
SJM further indicates that any employees at Casino Grandview will ‘remain employed and be reassigned to other casinos of SJM to undertake gaming-related roles according to operational needs’. Regarding those not directly employed, local employees of the property ‘will be invited to apply for related vacancies within the group’.
Casino Grandview is one of nine satellite casinos operating under SJM’s license. The government has mandated the closure or transition of all satellite operations into fully-owned entities by the end of the year, in line with new legislation.
Both Casa Real and Grandview are satellite operations under the Kingston Financial Group.
While SJM has indicated it will close seven satellite operations by year end, it expressed interest in acquiring two casino properties – located at Ponte 16 and L’Arc. However, in early June the company indicated that ‘the potential acquisitions have not yet commenced, and no binding agreements have been reached’.
