Rainbow Tourism Group\u2019s Montclair Resort and Conference acquisition drives growth, expanding casino operations beyond major cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Zimbabwe.- Zimbabwe\u2019s Nyanga<\/strong> town is emerging as a key player in hospitality<\/strong> and gaming<\/strong> after Rainbow Tourism Group reported a 15 per cent rise<\/strong> in first-half 2025 revenue, supported by its acquisition of Montclair Resort and Conference, a hotel and casino complex<\/strong>. The resort, which includes hotel, conference and casino facilities, highlights the growth of casino infrastructure beyond major cities<\/strong> like Harare and Bulawayo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rainbow Tourism Group\u2019s H1\u202f2025<\/strong> report, as published on AfricanFinancials.com, states: \u201cThe acquisition, finalised in late 2024 and consolidated into RTG\u2019s financials<\/strong> from March 2025, includes casino operations alongside hotel and conference facilities. RTG\u2019s strong H1\u202f2025 results, showing approximately 15 per cent year-on-year revenue growth<\/strong>, reflect the combined performance of its hotel and casino portfolio, including Montclair.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Casinos expanding to secondary towns<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Montclair acquisition underscores the growing trend<\/strong> of casino infrastructure expanding into secondary towns<\/strong>. Investment in Nyanga shows that regional towns can host profitable gaming operations while boosting tourism<\/strong> and local employment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RTG\u2019s refurbishment<\/strong> of the resort has upgraded both the hotel and casino facilities, positioning the property as a destination for leisure and gaming. The group highlights this move as part of a broader strategy<\/strong> to diversify its geographic footprint and strengthen its hospitality and casino segment across Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montclair\u2019s success in Nyanga illustrates a wider trend in Zimbabwe: casinos are increasingly moving outside major cities, enhancing tourism and job creation<\/strong> and demonstrating that resort-town investments can drive strong portfolio growth.<\/p>\n\n\n
