Snap Fitness I reckon ‘Fitness is a sector’ you should look at and what better than looking at some of the famous existing ?tness brands that provide franchises in Australia. 3. EFM Health Clubs You might be wondering – Why Fitness? 4. My First Gym Well! Before i present to you the ‘growing ?tness industry’ in Australia – here are a few blogs from our Australian Franchise Series: 5. Jetts Fitness  List of popular Home and Aged Care Franchises in Australia Genesis Health and 6. Famous Soup and Salad Franchises  Handyman Franchises in Australia  Consider this: Fitness Clubs 7. Planet Fitness The Australian health and ?tness industry is one of the major industries in the country and contributes $4 billion to the country’s GDP. (Source: Ausactive) This $4 billion, however, are not a direct contribution.  The health and ?tness industry contributes $1.52 billion directly to the national GDP, whereas its supply chain-related indirect impact adds $2.49 billion more to the GDP.  The combined share in the GDP is thus more than $4 billion. As you can imagine, such a colossal industry must also have a signi?cant role in employment and activity.  Again, as per the report mentioned above, the impact is direct and indirect. The health and ?tness industry creates more than 31,000 jobs directly and 26,000 jobs through its indirect effect. (Source: Global Deloitte Report) The ?tness industry in Australia is continuously growing, and ?tness activities are taking new and reformed shapes.  The industry is not just limited to weight training and gyms alone.  Aussies are increasingly discovering an interest in Yoga and Pilates studios, dance, group classes, and many other such activities.

  2. On the ?ip side, the report also highlighted the cost of inactivity to the Australian healthcare system. Individual inactivity in Australia costs half the GDP amount generated by the ?tness industry – a whopping $2 billion.  And that is just in terms of the cost of healthcare expenditures. The allied costs on productivity are even higher. Every year Australia loses over 14 million working days in absenteeism and presenteeism from insuf?ciently active workers.  And every such inactive worker costs $2,191 per year to the Australian economy. I’m sure, with these stats, you can imagine the potential of the gym franchise business in Australia.  To cater to Australians’ health and ?tness needs, gyms and ?tness-related businesses will likely continue growing. — The Australian Fitness Franchise industry has a plethora of options for you to chose from. In this blog, we’ll answer all your question related to gym franchises in Australia and give you all the details of the top 15 gym franchises in Australia. By the end of the blog, you should be able to make an informed decision by getting answer to questions like: What are the top gym franchises in Australia? How are the already existing franchises doing in the industry? What is the scale and size of those gym franchises? Which ?tness franchise has the minimum investment cost? With this brief overview of the Australian gym franchise business, let us now jump to our list of the top 15 gym ad ?tness franchises in Australia. Anytime Fitness Number of Franchises 530+

  3. Headquarters NSW Founded in 2008 Franchise Cost $381,575 – $783,897  One of the world’s fastest-growing ?tness chains tops our list.  Anytime Fitness is a 24-hour health and ?tness club founded in Minnesota, USA. In Australia, the brand was launched in the town of Gunnedah, NSW, in 2008.  After one and a half decades of doing business, the brand has spread to more than 500 branches across the country. This growth makes it one of the biggest health club chains in Australia. The club’s growth is not limited to Australia alone.  Globally, the brand has expanded to more than 5000 clubs. If these stats do not sound impressive, Anytime Fitness has some exciting numbers to show its rapid growth. For example, as per the club’s of?cial website, a new member joins an Anytime club every three minutes. Now that’s some pretty neat data point, won’t you say? A club that is growing by the minute!  It must be doing something, a lot of things, right? But as you might wonder, this growth rate is not a mere claim but has been certi?ed by the Franchise Council of Australia (FCA). In 2018, FCA gave the brand “International Franchisor of the Year” award based on ?nancial strength, stability, growth rate, and size. One of the clever strategies of the brand is its ‘small club format’ that reimagines the small gym space. The idea behind designing a smaller club is to have a reduced footprint and more ingenious con?guration to optimise the experience for those that prefer smaller and cosier spaces for their ?tness routine. The club is open 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. (Source: Of?cial Website, Entrepreneur, Wikipedia) Visit Website To Know More Snap Fitness

  4. Number of Franchises 235 Headquarters Brisbane, QLD Founded in 2003 Franchise Cost $354,738 – $1,211,917 (Source: SnapFitness) The second ?tness club on the list is also a US-origin club.  Peter Taunton founded the club in Chanhassen, Minnesota, US, in 2003. The club was launched with the ambition to be an industry innovator. Present in more than 20 countries, Snap Fitness has opened more than 1000 clubs and has a vast community of 1 million+ member. (Source: SnapFitness) In Australia, Snap Fitness is a Brisbane headquartered company that has more than 235 clubs spread throughout the country.  Snap Fitness is part of a more outstanding ?tness consortium that includes 9Round, YogaFit Studios, Insurgence, Steele Fitness, Kosama, and TRUMAV. The club entered the Australian market in 2009 – Within six years of its original launch in the US. One of the reasons for such a rapid brand expansion is its smooth onboarding and franchising system. The club can be out?tted with equipment and opened within ten days of signing the lease. The whole franchise is mounted on an 18-wheeler, ready to be unpacked on any site on arrival. Once your franchise is opened, its cost can break even at 275 members strength. Time-wise, it can be achieved within three months. As you can see, Snap Fitness has truly stood to its name in this regard.  That is why most franchise owners are, what the brand terms, ‘absentee owners’.  Absentee owners are the ones who are running the gym as a side business.  The majority of franchise owners, 60%, fall in this category.

  5. Most of these absentee owners can run it as a side business because of the convenience of checking out their visit counts and revenue reports online.  It is supported by the fact that the members enter gyms with their access cards.  They can even access their club’s live footage remotely. (Sources: Wikipedia, SnapFitness, Forbes) Visit Website To Know More EFM Health Clubs Number of Franchises 65 Headquarters Unley, South Australia Founded in 1991 Franchise Cost $120,000+ The third gym franchise on the list is EFM Health Club. Curiously named as an acronym, EFM has an interesting story behind its name. But before coming to its name, let’s just talk about its inception and the specialities of its operations. EFM Health Club is the ?rst on our list, an Australian-origin club.  The club was founded by Shane Redbone, an ex-SANFL and AFL footballer. With over 65 outlets throughout the country, the club has won several awards for its exceptional services since it was founded in 1991. The speciality of the EFM Health Clubs lies in corporate health and ?tness programs for the employees of major Australian hospitals. Hence the name EFM, which stands for Executive Fitness Management. Several years after its operations, the company realised that its name was probably not the best of choices. The name “Executive Fitness management” sounded rather confusing to the people and generated so many questions regarding the services offered by the club.

  6. So, the club changed its name to its acronym, EFM Health Clubs. EFM Health Clubs also specialises in running on-site ?tness programs for schools. The club has more than 20 school programs being run nationwide. One ?agship program run for schools is called “Fit 2 Play”, which aims to ?ght childhood obesity through its special ?tness sessions for kids needing help in this regard. EFM provides free commercial-grade ?tness equipment and specialised programs for students, staff, school alumni, parents, and the local school community through these programs. The star feature of the club is a personalised and tailored program with an affordable membership scheme. (Sources: EFM, Wikipedia) Visit Website To Know More My First Gym Number of Franchises 16 Headquarters Ashmore, Queensland Founded in 2017 Franchise Cost $250,000+ (Source: Company’s Of?cial Website)  Revenue $20.7 million The next gym franchise on the list is quite unique. My First Gym is a health and sports activity gym dedicated to kids of all ages.  Yes. A novel concept indeed, but a successful one! The idea of the gym was conceived and materialised by Dan and Eric Newton in Hawthorne, QLD, in 2017.

  7. The couple thought of creating a “one-stop shop” for children’s ?tness. As unique as the idea sounds, it became a leader in this particular niche. The gym has state-of-the-art facilities for the kids and world-class programs to get the kids involved in fun and physically rewarding activities. As you can imagine, being a kid-friendly space, it is also a family-friendly area where parents and guardians love to hang around. The club brings a variety of innovative technologies and ideas to the child’s physical ?tness. The key among them is MyMovementBuddy technology, which kids can wear in and outside class. This wearable allows parents and kids to track their movement and reach goals in a structured way. The real-time score for their activities keeps the kids fully involved in their progress. Not to mention the fun and competition it brings along with it. The atmosphere and vibe at the club are one of the most energetic. There are more than 70 classes conducted each week which include MFG Ninja Warrior Parkour Gymnastics Martial Arts Dance, Yoga. Another awe-inspiring feat of the club is its kid’s range. The club caters to kids aged seven months (yes, months, not years!) to 15 years old. So practically, no kid feels left behind at My First Gym. The membership perks are equally inclusive. Kids can choose different classes each week with only one membership scheme. Its MFG-FIt classes are the ?rst functional group training class in Australia designed for kids aged 8 to 15. The club also offers birthday parties, date nights, and holiday camps to add to the fun. For its prospective franchisees, the club has undeniable potential for a commercial children’s ?tness service. The support from their head of?ce includes ongoing training, staff development, and sales and marketing teams to ensure pre-sales programs.  It has specialised training concentrated on the ?rst 90 days of the opening and even beyond in many aspects.

  8. Number of Franchises 129 Headquarters Sunshine Coast, Queensland Founded in 2007 Franchise Cost $550,000 – $700,000 (Source: ICSID) Revenue $62.9 million The next gym franchise on the list is again a joint venture of a couple. Brendon and Cristy Levenson founded Jetts Fitness in 2007 on the Gold Coast, QLD. The brand has the unique honour of being the ?rst gym franchise in Australia to offer all- day access. Not just that, but the gym also offered no lock-in contracts, low fees and members-friendly policies.  In 2021, the club received the 13th Best Place to Work in Australia; in 2022, it received the 7th Best Place to Work in Australia. (Source: Startup Daily) And success is not just a recent phenomenon. Years ago, in 2012, the gym was announced by BRW as Australia’s #1 Fastest Growing Franchise.  The award recognised the incredible revenue growth the brand garnered back then – a 403% increase from the last year and a turnover of $42 million. Going beyond its industry, the brand was declared the 2nd fastest growing company in Australia. (Source: WRKPlus) The gym was acquired by Quadrant Private Equity in 2016.  The acquisition was channelled through its Fitness and Lifestyle Group in collaboration with other Australian-based gym franchises, including Fitness First, Goodlife Health Clubs and Hypoxi. Jetts Fitness is not con?ned to Australia. It opened its ?rst international club in New Zealand in 2010. 

  9. The expansion continued afterwards, bringing the club’s franchises into many other countries, including Thailand, Netherlands, and the UK. (Sources: Jetts Fitness, Wikipedia) Visit Website To Know More Genesis Health and Fitness Clubs Number of Franchises 100+ Headquarters Bayswater, Victoria  Founded in 1997 Franchise Cost $289,500 – $446,000 Revenue $66.2 million Next gym franchise on the list is also an Australian-origin and 100% Australian owned health-club brand. Genesis Health and Fitness Club ?rst opened in 1997 in Ringwood, Victoria.  The club’s unique strength is being the most pro?table ?tness club organisation. In more than two and half decades of operation, the club has garnered more than 60,000 members and hundreds of highly trained staff. One of the secrets behind their pro?table business and high membership rate is their unique Genesis service and retention programs. Genesis uses an unorthodox approach towards franchising. It operates through a mix of company-owned franchise clubs and joint venture operations, all operating under the franchise system. But what purpose does this approach serve? Well, it allows the brand to remain ?exible in its approach to acquiring, facilitating and successfully operating clubs of any size and ownership choice.

  10. To grade it as per the membership cost, it stands in the middle of the spectrum – neither cheap nor too costly. But certain perks give the members personalised and premium treatment. The new members are welcomed with free and personalised ?tness consultation, personal training sessions and a complete training plan. Once you get on that program, they check in with you every 12 weeks to keep you on track. And like other quality gyms, they offer small group and nutrition training programs for an added cost under their ‘the coaching zone’ program. It is becoming increasingly popular among the members of the gym. The gym is a 24/7, all-week open club. (Sources: Genesis, GetMyFit, LinkedIn) Visit Website To Know More Planet Fitness Number of Franchises 15 Headquarters Sydney, NSW Founded in 1992 Franchise Cost $936,600 – $4,558,000 Revenue $224.4 million (Source: ClubIndusry) Planet Fitness (PF) is a US-origin ?tness club which was founded in 1992 in Dover, New Hampshire, USA. PF did a revolutionary business model change to attract more members.  The approach has been quite attention-grabbing and achieved both praise and criticism from different segments of society.

  11. Starting, PF acted on the same gym model as the rest of the clubs in the US.  A regular gym space that always attracted hard-core weightlifters who had somehow dedicated their lives to it.  And as per the gym’s calculation, it constituted only 10-15% of the general population.  So, they sat down and tried to ?gure out why the rest of 80-85% of the people did not join the gym. As per PF’s ?ndings, the answer to that question was the shyness of the new or casual gym- goers. They hated the “look at me” attitudes and behaviours in typical gyms. Another main reason was the cost of the membership. Many people do not want to pay huge sums of money for a membership they do not like to be a regular user of. So, the brand acted on its ?ndings and brought many changes in response to them. They made their gym environment non-intimidating and affordable.  They started calling their clubs “Judgement Free Zone”, meaning to be a welcoming and friendly community where people can feel comfortable regardless of their muscle size, body shape, or the level of activity they indulge in. The club’s membership price cut was also drastically reduced to reduce competition with other health and ?tness clubs. PF is present in many countries, including the USA, Australia, Puerto Rico, Canada, Panama, and Mexico.

  12. Revenue $33.7 Million Next up is a gym franchise that was founded in 1989 in the Greenwich Village neighbourhood of New York City. The club had in its roots the ambition to welcome people of diverse groups. Like our last entry on the list, Crunch Fitness also claims to be a “No Judgement” ?tness club. The club’s ‘no judgement philosophy’ aims to remove the intimidation factor from going to the gym and combine this model with entertainment and diverse offerings, keeping members inspired to work out. The gym also sold logo merchandise to young upscale members to market their gym’s no judgement philosophy. The gym’s franchise operation in Australia was started in 2007 by a couple in the heart of Sydney. The couple has 45 years of experience in the health and ?tness industry. Their passion for ?tness activities is matchless; they call it “living with mana”. And their “mana” certainly shows in the brand’s success. As with every premium gym franchise, Crunch also has a set of ?tness programs they advertise for ?tness programs meeting the needs of various ?tness enthusiasts. One such program is Crunch 360 Transformation (360T) which combines eight weeks of programming designed to ?exibility ?t individual schedules. The 360T includes scalability, a nutrition guide, Evolt body scanning, team support, and the option to add on personalised coaching. And as far as tangible goals are concerned, the program offers speci?c ?tness goals. Here are all the ?tness goals the 360T program promises: Up to 5.2 kilos or more weight loss 100% strength gain 5 extra reps on the longevity test 75% increase in workout show rate 250% improved happiness (Sources: CrunchAustralia, Wikipedia, CrunchUSA) Visit Website To Know More Orange Theory Fitness

  13. Number of Franchises 8 Headquarters Boca Raton, Florida Founded in 2010 Franchise Cost $488,405 – $994,360 Revenue $179.6 Million The next ?tness club franchise on the list is quite a unique one. Orangetheory Fitness (OTF) is a US-based boutique ?tness studio franchised and headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida. The club was founded by exercise physiologists Ellen Lathan, Jerome Kern, and David Long in 2010. The club builds on its predecessor Pilates studio, called “Ellen’s Ultimate Workout”, founded by Latham in the late 1990s. OFT’s success can be gauged from the fact that it was ranked #415 in Inc. magazine’s “Fastest-Growing Private Companies” list. The brand also features among the “Franchise 500” of the Entrepreneur magazine. What makes the ?tness club unique is its high-intensity interval training, alternating between short periods of intense exercise and long recovery periods. Their sessions are typically an hour long and are designed in a way to generate excess post- exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC). What in God’s name is EPOC, you must be asking. Well, it is a physiological concept that occurs after an elevation in oxygen consumption as the body returns to its pre-exercise state. To better serve their speci?c ?tness regimen, the club’s studios are split into three stations: Treadmill Water-resistant rowing machine Weight training

  14. These sections are purpose-built. The members of the clubs attend these stations in a cycle through the entire duration of their one-hour session. These workouts emphasise endurance, power or strength, or a combination of the three. These sessions are a group activity led by a coach. OTF heavily incorporates technology in its operations. You can book your classes through the Orangetheory app, which displays the location, day, and time of open classes and which coach will be teaching. Another de?ning feature of the club is the plethora of social involvement challenges it puts its members through. Such challenges include Transformation Challenge Dri-Tri Marathon All Out Mayhem Hell Week Orange Voyage Catch Me If You Can Inferno Capture the Flag 12 Days of Fitness These challenges offer members themed workouts and out?ts such as t-shirts, hats, or socks for completing so many days of the challenge.

  15. Franchise Cost $1,483,000 – $3,602,000 (Source: GoldGym) Revenue $580.0 million Gold’s Gym is probably one of the most recognisable ?tness brands included in the list. The gym is also probably one of the oldest in this industry. Gold’s Gym was founded in 1965 as a small gym in Venice, California. It has now spread to 6 continents of the world, with more than 600 locations the world over. But the gym’s ?rst franchise in Australia in 2005. It is interesting to note that the club calls its franchises “co-ed ?tness centers” and not speci?cally a gym. Being one of the oldest gyms it used homemade equipment and was dubbed “the Mecca of bodybuilding”. Gold’s Gym boasts of its association with the legends of the bodybuilding world, like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Dave Draper. The gym has quite an interesting story behind its international fame. By 1975, the gym was proving to be an almost failing operation and its founders decided to sell it to a regular gym visitor, Ken Sprague. turning it into an antique shop. Sprague kept the gym running despite all odds. It turns out that Sprague had connections with the ?lm industry. These connections allowed him to offer his gym as a primary studio for the ?lming of the movie Pumping Iron. After the release of the ?lm, Gold’s Gym rose to phenomenal success and by the 1979s became the world’s most famous gym. Later, the gym was owned by Peter Grymkowski, a Mr World bodybuilding champion, and his partners. Among its many ?rsts, Gold Gym was one of the ?rst companies in the health and ?tness industry to the franchise. Its franchising started back in 1980. With more than 3 million plus members, the brand claims to be the number 1 full-service ?tness franchise in the world. It is present in more than 29 countries and has more than 700 franchises.

  16. Number of Franchises 250 Headquarters Narellan, New South Wales Founded in 2008 Franchise Cost $350k to $550k* plus GST Revenue $32.2 million Plus Fitness is an Australian-origin gym franchise founded by John Fuller. Fuller initially launched the ?rst four franchises of the business being the sole owner of the club, but later formed a partnership with Nigel Miller to run the future business together. Although the gym started franchising in 2009, it soon realised the need to change the orthodox ‘big box gyms’ franchising model. Their gym had to adopt a low-priced, convenient, and 24 hours access model to cut through the market competition. The signi?cant change to the franchising model adopted by the partners was to follow a low-staff model and an exclusive territory for each franchisee. The exclusive territory model had a dedicated aim of protecting the franchisees from future market saturation. Along with these measures, the owners ensured that they developed a real turn-key franchise operation that offered a lucrative package to investors, including gym equipment, franchise training, and marketing support. These speci?c measures aimed at making their franchising more lucrative for investors paid them real dividends, and their efforts ?nally made the gym a true ‘Australian Success Story’. On the of?cial launch of its 24/7 ?tness club model at the Sydney Franchise Expo in 2011, the brand sold ?ve franchises right ‘off the stand’ in three days. So, as you can imagine, the gym’s franchising model is its real strength. The company’s website lays out eight steps process to own their franchise. Plus Fitness is also big on using innovation and technology. The branch has a sophisticated app on both iOS and Android platforms. Through their apps, the brand offers virtual classes with their proprietary ‘Classes On Demand’ systems which provide 24/7 classes to the members.

  17. Another unique strength this ?tness club owns is its dedicated in-house media channel which can be streamed into each franchise with all the latest music and training tips from the brand ambassador, World Champion hurdler Sally Pearson. (Sources: PlusFitness, Of?cial Website) Visit Website To Know More Fernwood Fitness Number of Franchises 70+ Headquarters Richmond, Victoria Founded in 1989 Franchise Cost $500,000+ Revenue $54.9 million Another unique club in the list. Fernwood Fitness is a women-only health and ?tness club with a mission to ‘empower women to shine’. Opened in 1989 in Bendigo by Diana Williams, Fernwood boasts a proud history of more than 40 years of successful experience. The founder, Diana Williams, is a successful businesswoman, proud mother, and weightlifting champion. Being a female-friendly ?tness club, the gym has tailored its ?tness routines to best suit its members’ needs. They have curated a ?ne balance of strength and weight training, cardio supported by state-of-the-art equipment, high-intensity exercise, and group ?tness classes. But these are not all the activities. The club also offers FIIT30, Tai Chai, Zumba, yoga, Pilates, meditation, and mindfulness classes.

  18. And as you would expect, being a women-dedicated ?tness club, it also offers hair products, hair dryers, and straighteners in its equipment inventory. Most of their clubs do offer childcare services as well to let the moms cater to their ?tness needs without having to worry about dropping their kids somewhere else or hiring a nanny for them. (Sources: FernwoodFitness, StartupGrind) Visit Website To Know More Stepz Fitness Number of Franchises 16 Headquarters Dapto, New South Wales Founded in 2009 Franchise Cost $200,000 to $250,000 Revenue $3.5 million (Source: StepzFitness) Stepz Fitness is a ?tness club with a noble mission behind its business strategy. The club aims to play its role in making “1 million Australians become healthier, ?tter and happier.” The brand markets its clubs as “24/7 boutique gym” franchises. While the 24/7 gym operation has almost become a necessity for the gym to do a decent business, Stepz Fitness tops it up with another one of its marketing slogans. The Stepz Fitness clubs are advertised as a ‘non-intimidating’ gym that is open to all – whether you are 17 or 70 years old. As with other gym brands, this club also has a unique business philosophy to make them stand out from the rest. So, their strategy was to combine a tiered pricing model by incorporating Functional Group-Training and 24/7 gym facilities under one roof. The club claims to be a pioneer in this approach.

  19. This approach, as per the club’s claims, has given them on average higher revenues than other successful clubs, but with half the members. Quite an impressive feat, to be honest! The club seems to be selling a lot of franchises based on this unique model which ?lls the gap between 24/7 gyms and boutique group training. This combination of F45-style functional training and 24/7 gyms is being marketed as the future of ?tness. And to support this claim, the company shows a yearly revenue that exceeds $3.5 million.

Curves’ business philosophy is to allow women their personal space in a women-only environment to pursue their ?tness goals. The workouts of the Curves combine strength, cardio, and stretching. But the interesting thing is that all these exercises are con?ned to a 30-minute workout session. Almost as old as Fernwood Fitness (it is only 3 years younger), Curves is among the leaders in the women’s ?tness business.

  20. Curves boast a ?tness impact affecting millions of women across the globe through their famous 30-minute sessions. Catering to women’s needs, the gym also offers at-home workouts through their apps to the paid membership program. In their clubs, the workouts are always led and supervised by a trained professional and you are given dedicated support throughout your ?tness journey. Their membership plans have a tiered regime that allows you to choose in-club or at-home membership with and without a coach to guide you.

Not at all. In the same way as the rest of our list, this one also runs its franchise business in a unique way. The Vision Personal Training takes a holistic approach to ?tness. It is surrounded around all the elements of a ?tness package, not just “fad” high-tempo and short-span exercises. The four pillars of their holistic ?tness approach include Emotions Education Eating
