- 250 Anytime Fitness clubs in India in the next ten years
USA-based Anytime Fitness brand is eyeing to open 250 clubs in India within the next 10 years. The fitness brand recently opened its 2,500th gym in Madrid, Spain. The gym now has nearly 600 gyms outside of the USA. It opened its first gym in the USA in 2002. Currently, there are eight Anytime Fitness gyms located in India.
"A very small percentage of the US based franchisors can say that nearly one fourth of their units are located outside of the United States. It’s a proof that our business is attractive to potential franchisees and consumers worldwide. In fact, 2014 will likely be the first year that we open more gyms internationally than in the US," says Chuck Runyon, Chief Executive Officer, Anytime Fitness.
Anytime Fitness clubs are now open in five continents in nearly 20 countries. In the last five years alone, more than 350 gyms have opened in Australia, 30 gyms have opened in the UK, 41 gyms have opened in Japan and 23 gyms have opened in The Netherlands.
It has over 2,500 gyms serving more than 20 lakh members in five continents. Open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, it provides its members with convenient fitness options and friendly, personal service in well-maintained facilities which feature top-quality exercise equipment. Brand’s all franchise gyms are individually owned and operated.
