NO LONGER FRANCHISING
Franchising allows you to be in control of your own destiny with a proven successful system developed by experts. You will continuously receive operational support and on-going training support. You have a "Partner" in your business to help you every step of the way.
The fitness franchise industry continues to flourish. Between the years 2000 and 2005 IHRSA (International Health, Racquet, and Sportsclub Association) shows a 144% positive growth in the franchise fitness industry. There has also been an explosive unit growth of small format clubs in the franchising industry. Club Industry's Fitness Business Magazine stated that "Smaller format clubs tend to have more convenient locations and focus on a particular customer niche-women only, one on one training, and fitness only".
