DigiDeal campus growing

Expansion is in the cards for Spokane Valley-based electronic casino game developer DigiDeal Corp. , which plans a new building to accommodate a growing workforce.

DigiDeal will break ground on the two-story, approximately 21,000-square-foot structure March 31, said Lucas Holmquist, project manager for contractor Baker Construction & Development Inc. The roughly $3 million project, located near the company’s existing building on East Third Avenue, should be completed around late October, he said.

The corporation has grown from 12 to 42 employees over the last 18 months, according to an e-mail announcing the groundbreaking. In June, Reno, Nevada-based International Game Technology became a majority shareholder, taking over manufacturing and distribution of the company’s electronic table games.

DigiDeal currently works from offices at 5207 E. Third Ave. and 802 N. Fancher.
