Fitness club can become the centre of the community and the tool to change people’s lives.
Running your own gym can be a life-changing and inspirational business decision, especially when you know you are part of a number-one global franchise family. Anytime Fitness was recently ranked number-one in the Entrepreneur 2014 Franchise 500 list – a list widely considered to be the world’s best and most comprehensive franchise ranking, with well-known franchises like Subway, Pizza Hut, Hampton Hill Hotels and McDonald’s traditionally ranking near the top. According to Entrepreneur, the most important factors to consider are financial strength and stability, growth rate, and the size of a franchise system.
The UK expansion of Anytime Fitness is moving fast, with over 120 clubs at different stages of process. The clubs in the UK have been received extremely well, with UK club membership numbers being the highest in the world out of all Anytime Fitness clubs (that’s across over 2,550 clubs, two million members in 19 countries).

Anytime Fitness franchise opportunities
offer reliable, predictable income and the chance to achieve the work-life balance you want, with freedom to choose whether you work in a club or employ a manager to take care of the business for you. Hugh and Cathy Mullan, Anytime Fitness Glasgow are on the lookout for their next club in Scotland. “We were seeking an opportunity that would give us control of our lives. We looked at other franchises and into setting up our own business but the more we looked into Anytime Fitness, the support and its proven success, the more we realised there was less risk involved. It’s like a family. What we love most is the importance of the members; we enjoy getting to know everyone,
their stories and successes.” Linda Crowson is Anytime Fitness franchisee for Twickenham. “I did lots of research and due diligence and thought that the Anytime Fitness business model stood out from the rest. The thing I love most is the community aspect and getting to know our customers; they tell us that they love the convenience of the 24/7 model and many are surprised at the quality they get for their money. With 350 members pre-sold before we opened and the club growing, we’re delighted with how it’s all gone and are really enjoying being part of Anytime Fitness.” Anytime Fitness provide you with the support, technology and experience to help you open and operate your club and still have a work-life balance. Other benefits include:
• A low staff model that means less management time and hassle
• The ability to predict, with confidence, next month’s income, and the month after that, and the month after that, and so on... n
