R Franco

Since 1965, Recreativos Franco (R Franco) has been striving to deliver quality gambling entertainment products to the Spanish betting market and beyond. Nowadays, the company has made the jump from land-based gaming to online based e-gaming with its own dedicated development and distribution solutions.

As far as the games go, this company has all of the betting bases covered with machines that offer all sorts of classic casino games as well as some 3-reel retro reels and 5-reel video slot machines.


More than 50 Years of Experience

Where to begin with R. Franco? Well, the beginning would be as good a place to start as any and we will have to go all the way back to 1965 when Joaquín and Jesus Franco Muñoz set up their own little workshop in the outskirts of Madrid. It was here that the brothers began to design and develop their very own games machines – the first independently branded gaming products in Spain. From such humble beginnings, the company began to expand through the late 1970s and early 1980s to being offering their gaming products to international casinos in France, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Russia, Italy and the United Kingdom as well as Latin American countries.

After that, the company rode the waves of multiple economic down turns - and even a change in currency when many of its European markets adopted the Euro – to remain at the top of its game. The company even smashed milestone after milestone, making tens of thousands of popular game machines to spread their vision of entertainment across the casinos of the world. And at home in the early 2000s, R. Franco gained 40% of the Spanish betting market with just one of its games models: Los Gnomos, or “The Gnomes”.

In more recent times, the Spanish gambling business has adapted yet again to tackle internet based gaming. And indeed, the company is keen to get involved with the e-gaming industry since it has acquired seven gambling licenses for online distribution.
