The valley’s largest tavern operator is getting bigger.
The PT’s Taverns chain, which has been in operation in Nevada for more than 40 years, will push past 70 locations by the end of the month with a new strategy involving the use of new brands.
“We did a couple acquisitions of alternative operators last year, which Golden has never really done before,” explained Blake Sartini II, who oversees the tavern group as well as some of Golden Entertainment Inc.’s casino properties. “But I think as we’re on our quest to get to 80 to 100 tavern locations here in town, we felt like we needed some other brands to roll into the portfolio.”
