FRANCHISEFOCUS INVESTMENT: FROM £200,000* A healthy difference
The Snap Fitness franchisees capitalising on the booming fitness industry
T
he UK fitness industry has never looked stronger, valued at an all-time high of £6.5 billion,
with 11.3 million members nationwide. With participation climbing and demand for quality gyms continuing to grow, the opportunity for ambitious entrepreneurs has never been greater. While the industry is enjoying average
membership growth of 5.4%, Snap Fitness is significantly outperforming the market, achieving growth of over 18%, with new gyms opened in the past 12 months welcoming an average of 44% more members on day one than those launched in 2023. This momentum is powered not only by the booming market, but also by Snap’s expert Support Office team, which ensures franchisees are fully equipped to thrive. The benefits are clear; industry-
leading guidance, proven systems, and an unwavering commitment to franchisee success. Snap Fitness is helping people live healthier lifestyles while enabling business owners to build sustainable, profitable ventures.
Franchisee success stories Sam Aujla (right) is a prime example of this momentum. Opening five clubs in five years across England and the Republic of Ireland, Sam and his team delivered record-breaking member numbers. Entering the industry with no prior fitness background, Sam credits the network’s hands-on support as key to his success. “The team at Snap Fitness created
a great atmosphere and made us feel like they wanted us to succeed. Neither Dad nor I had experience in the fitness industry, but the team consistently come through on their promises. The support has been amazing, across operations and marketing alike.” Elsewhere, Mark Williams spotted a gap
in the market in Cornwall. After taking his carpentry business to new heights, he

saw an unmissable opportunity to bring a premium gym experience to Truro and turn his hand to something new. Backed by Snap’s support and site-selection expertise, Snap Fitness Truro achieved the second-highest-ever number of members on opening. “For me, opening my first gym, having
a franchise like Snap Fitness behind me was worth its weight in gold. From securing the building to the branding, equipment, and layout, Snap guided me every step of the way to ensure I opened a successful club.”
“Unwavering commitment to nchisee success”
With backgrounds in property
investment and hotel management, Olga and Gurnake Cheema sought a franchise that combined their business expertise with a proven system. Their first two locations reached breakeven within weeks, and with three more sites planned, growth shows no signs of slowing.
