About the manufacturer

The history of the Austrian conglomerate began more than 40 years ago. Even before the creation of Novomatic, the Austrian Johan Graf was engaged in the sale of mechanical pinball machines and could estimate the volume of this market. At some point, the Count realized that in his country and neighboring countries, the niche with classic slot machines remains unfilled. In 1980, the entrepreneur rented a room and started developing his own slot machines. A year later, he made the first delivery of gaming equipment under the Admiral brand to European countries.
