27: Cherry (2016)

Swedish operator Cherry enters the Power 50 at what may look like a lofty 27th position. However, the operator, which owns the bulk of games supplier Yggdrasil Gaming, has developed a strong presence in the Nordics through brands such as CherryCasino. com and SveaCasino.com. Cherry’s recent acquisition of 49% of ComeOn, which is anticipating operating profits of approximately £20m this year, will strengthen its position even further.
