The Emerald Resort & Casino was majority-owned by London Clubs International, a London-based casino operator that in 2006 became a division of Harrah's Entertainment (now Caesars Entertainment). Later, on May 2019, Caesars announced the sale of their 70% interest (the remaining 30% stake is owned by local minority partners) to Peermont Hotels, a Johannesburg-based hospitality and entertainment company.[2][3] The deal was initially expected to be completed within the third quarter of 2019. As of July 2020, the Emerald Resort & Casino is still a Caesars property.[4][5]
