LEMG international competition

Minas Gerais closes today reception of proposals for conventional and instant lotteries

This Monday (27), ends the deadline for interested companies to present their proposals for operating instant and conventional lotteries in Minas Gerais. Loteria Mineira launched at the end of last year the International Contest 001/2023 that will deliver the two products to the private sector. After a hearing that brought together main players and written comments, all doubts were resolved. The envelopes will be opened tomorrow (28), at 10 am.

The delivery of the envelopes of those interested in operating the instantaneous and conventional lottery modalities of the Loteria do Estado de Minas Gerais, ends today at 5pm,  and the proposals will be opened tomorrow (28), when the qualification documents for the lottery will be analyzed. With the business running, is expected a collection of R$ 5 billion (US$ 952m), with a minimum transfer of R$ 500 million (US$ 95.2m) to the State over its 20-year term.

The company that wins the international competition will have a schedule of implementation phases, with a view to starting the commercial exploitation of the games.

By traditional lottery games, it is understood the instant lottery, commonly called scratch card, and the conventional lottery, which uses the drawing of balls, which was LEMG's flagship in the past.

The concessionaire company will be responsible for strategic planning services, product creation, printing solutions, implementation and operation of lottery products, marketing, storage, creation and operation of the distribution network, commercialization and payment of prizes.

The public notice began to be prepared in 2021 and Loteria Mineira sought the best international practices and the most successful models in the world to prepare the Public Notice. Last year, two public hearings brought together the main players in the global lottery market and national companies with the technical capacity to operate the modalities in bidding.

In these meetings, several contributions were made and clarifications requested so that LEMG could put the bidding on the air at the beginning of this year.
