Nicki Keenan, Senior Vice President of Sales for Landry's Restaurants, Inc., commented that "our previous success in deploying the AnyRate program at our Golden Nugget Las Vegas and Inn at the Ballpark properties prompted our desire to expand the program to Galveston and Laughlin". Keenan further indicated that "the ability to customize the competitive intelligence program to meet the very unique and differing needs of our casino hotels, resort properties, and urban properties has made AnyRate the right partner to work with Landry's".
John Romeo, President & CEO of AnyRate Software, stated that "we are extremely pleased to expand our relationship with a company the stature of Landry's". "AnyRate looks forward to working closely with the teams at all the Landry's properties to assist them in achieving their pricing goals in 2007 and beyond", commented Romeo.
