Gym Franchises

Run Your Own Gym and Fitness Business with Franchising

Looking to get into business ownership? Franchising is a great way to go about it. With support from the franchisor and a proven business model, it's no wonder franchising has a higher success rate compared to starting up alone.

Becoming a franchise owner means you'll have access to an established brand and business model. Franchising isn't employment, it's business ownership, and by owning a UK gym or fitness franchise, you can get into business for yourself but not by yourself.

Gym Business Opportunities - What's Available?

If you're looking to get into business ownership by running a gym or fitness centre, there are many options available. From franchises, franchise resales and starting up alone. One of the reasons entrepreneurs choose franchising is the support. But along with this, you also get access to the franchisor's partners and suppliers, for equipment and financing.

What are you looking to get out of business ownership? If you're a new entrepreneur getting started with business, the support can really come in useful. Meanwhile if you're looking to maximise your turnover and benefit from immediate cashflow, a gym franchise resale can be a good choice. Franchise resales are where an existing franchise territory is made available for sale, such as due to the existing franchisee owner retiring.

How Much Do Gym Franchises Cost?

There are usually several costs involved with buying a franchise. For a typical gym franchise, the franchise investment will be between £10,000 and £150,000. Mobile personal trainer franchises will usually cost less as the amount of equipment will be lower. Where a premises based franchise unit will require fit out and require more equipment, meaning a higher investment.
