Detroit’s Greektown Casino-Hotel announced the approval of two executives by the Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB). While both have been advising Greektown pending regulatory approval by the MGCB, Randall A. Fine has now been confirmed as Chief Executive Officer and Amanda Totaro has been confirmed as Vice President of Marketing. Fine and Totaro are also the Managing Director and Senior Vice President, Branding Practice, respectively, at The Fine Point Group, the Las Vegas-based casino management and consulting firm retained by Greektown to provide comprehensive operations and marketing management.  

“We are very pleased with the Michigan Gaming Control Board confirmation and are excited to officially assume these roles,” said Fine. “Since commencing our work with the property in January, The Fine Point Group has helped Greektown nearly double its profitability plan while substantially increasing market share. As our involvement moves to the next level, we are going to push even harder to offer the best value, the best service, and the best product to each and every customer in the Detroit market,” he added.  

Since The Fine Point Group began advising Greektown Casino-Hotel in January 2009, the property has increased its market share from 22.8 percent in January to 25 percent in March, according to MGCB figures, a net increase of almost 10 percent.
