Sam Aujla, Multi-club franchisee

It was clear from the get-go that the brand shared our ambitions - as soon as we met the team, we knew it was the business opportunity for us. In our initial meetings with other brands, it felt like they were more interested in our investment capital. However, the team at Snap Fitness created a great atmosphere and made us feel like they wanted us to succeed.

Brinderjeet Gill, Multi-Club Franchisee

“We opened our three clubs at a very interesting time for the fitness sector. But the support provided by Snap Fitness throughout the pandemic along with continued investments into infrastructure, support and the brand, has ensured that we have built a cohort of successful gyms within a short space and challenging time. Having seen first-hand the ROI potential of the Snap Fitness model, it has confirmed my confidence in the brand and led to my decision to open a fourth gym on my own"

Mark Williams, Snap Fitness Truro Franchisee

For me, doing my first gym, having a franchise like Snap Fitness behind me was worth its weight in gold. This was everything from getting the building, all the branding, the colour schemes, the equipment, the setup and the flooring. They gave me the insight into what I need to be doing to open a gym and make it successful.
