Back-to-back UK presale records at Snap Fitness

We’re proud to be supporting our franchisees to reach new heights, with our latest location in Whitstable opening with record-breaking membership numbers once again.

Snap Fitness Whitstable is the first-ever 24-hour gym to open in the Kent seaside town and broke the gym provider’s UK presale record, opening with more members than any of our previous 90+ UK locations.

It follows on from Snap Fitness’ last gym opening in the Cambridgeshire town of March earlier this year, which also broke the UK presale record with its bumper opening.

Spread across three floors, the gym transformed an unused radio studio building in the town that had been left vacant for over five years. The gym is packed full of state-of-the-art equipment, as well as two studios, a dedicated recovery area and treatment rooms.

The gym is the fifth location for our franchisee, who continues to scale his investment with Snap Fitness and see the returns of being a multi-site gym owner.

“I’m incredibly proud of the team and our franchise partners for achieving these impressive member records,” said Kevin Yates, CEO of Lift Brands EMEA. “Franchising is all about teamwork and it’s really rewarding for us to see the sustained demand for Snap Fitness gyms and that our model is delivering great results for our network.

“It’s an exciting time for us to shortly be opening our 100th location across the UK & Ireland and seeing a healthy balance of new franchisees investing in Snap Fitness and existing partners growing their portfolio.”

We have an exciting pipeline of openings before the end of 2024, with locations in Truro, Southport, Aberystwyth and Tullamore (Republic of Ireland) already announced.
