Anytime Fitness Australia has reached another milestone with the opening of its 150th club.
Hornsby franchisee Michael McGrath said “After owning our own private health club for 10 years, and seeing the change in the fitness industry, we saw the need to innovate and be dynamic in our approach to business to keep our club going. My business partners and I saw the Anytime Fitness model and knew straight away that this was the approach we needed not only to ensure our clubs success but also the growth of our business.
“We converted our existing club to an Anytime Fitness and were excited by the outcome. Not only has it cemented our club but has also given us the opportunity to grow our organisation with the opening of our fourth club at Hornsby.
“The business model is a great concept and meets the needs of not only the consumer with the flexibility of 24 hour and reciprocal access, but also the franchisee. With the support systems in place it allows me the flexibility to work on the business and grow my organisation, as opposed to being in the club working in it.
“Anytime Fitness has been a great decision and I’m excited for the future growth of my business”.
Justin McDonell and his sister Jacinta McDonell Jimenez launched the highly successful USA franchise into Australia in 2008.
Justin McDonell, said ‘Reaching the 150 mark is a major milestone for us. Our target of having 350 clubs open across all regions of Australia is getting closer every day. What sets Anytime Fitness apart from our competitors and is a vital element of our rapid growth is freedom.
“We offer franchisees the freedom to operate their business to suit their lifestyle, freedom to grow within the system, and the freedom that comes with knowing they have the support, product development and back-up of the worldÕs fastest growing fitness club franchise.”
