What Makes Gold’s Gym One of the World’s Top Fitness Franchises?

Last updated on May 7, 2012 by Franchise Chatter 1 Comment
in Fitness Franchises, Franchise Article

(Ambrosio’s note:  As a franchise blogger, I make a genuine effort to reach out to different participants within the industry — franchisors, franchise portal operators, bloggers, PR professionals, lawyers, brokers, and franchisees — to establish connections, exchange information and find ways we can work with each other for the good of the franchise industry. 

As part of my recent broad outreach, I invited franchisors from a wide range of categories and niches to tell me what makes their franchise so special and why we should care.  The tremendous show of support has been very encouraging. 

Allow me to share this well crafted response submitted by the team at Gold’s Gym.  Fitness franchises constitute the second most popular category on the blog (next only to frozen yogurt franchises), so I’m pleased to pass along this information to you.)

The $20 billion-plus health and fitness industry continues to be in extreme demand by a nation that is plagued by the rising obesity epidemic (Source: IHRSA.org).

America's Most Lucrative Franchises of the Year

With more than 50 million people in the United States who own gym memberships, there has never been a better time to have a slice of the health and fitness industry with franchise ownership. The proof is in the numbers — there’s no doubt that the industry is moving upward.

Fitness concepts continue to be a hot business investment in today’s economy, but how does an investor decide which brand is the right fit for their business portfolio? The history and power of the brand has everything to do with the success of the local franchisees.

Established as a single gym in Venice, Calif. in 1965, Gold’s Gym is currently the largest full-service gym chain in the world — serving nearly 3.5 million members from a variety of fitness levels in more than 700 locations in 42 states and 30 countries.

Whether you have a passion for health and fitness or would like to invest in the lucrative industry, Gold’s Gym provides a sound business model that supports all franchise partners regardless if they are a single unit owner or part of a franchise group that would like to expand their extensive franchise ownership portfolio into the health and fitness industry.
