Anytime Fitness Flexes Development Plans for Upstate New York

NEW YORK, Aug. 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Anytime Fitness, the fastest-growing co-ed gym in the world, recently announced plans to introduce over 150 locations in targeted areas throughout the state of New York. The community-focused brand will ramp up growth through strategic franchise partnerships and aims to open the new locations within the next five years.

There are currently 20 thriving Anytime Fitness locations open throughout the Empire State. Kicking off this development push, Rochester and Newburgh locations are slated to open within the next 12 months, with another eight in various stages of development. With a diverse, active population, an open real estate market and multiple successful existing franchisees, New York is an obvious and attractive area for continued growth. Targeted markets throughout the state include Albany, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse and Yonkers, among several others.

"We're looking to grow where we can make a difference in people's lives, and there is immense potential throughout New York to do just that," said Tom Gilles, Vice President of Franchise Development. "With proof of concept in the region and a neighborhood-focused culture that resonates perfectly with the supportive atmosphere of our gyms, we're poised for explosive growth in the state."

Anytime Fitness has been the fastest-growing fitness club franchise in the world for 10 consecutive years. Open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, Anytime Fitness offers convenient and affordable exercise with supportive coaching and community events. When members join one gym, they gain access to all of the 3,500+ Anytime Fitness gyms worldwide, at no extra cost. Gyms are equipped with state-of-the-art strength training and cardio equipment, offer personal training sessions and small group programs. Through support and guidance from trainers and staff and encouragement from a community of members, Anytime Fitness aims to motivate individuals on their journey to Get to a Healthier Place®, no matter where they live or what their physical fitness level is.

"We're not looking to simply grow a franchise brand – we're looking to grow and help individuals reach their specific goals and achieve a healthy, happy lifestyle," said Chuck Runyon, co-founder and CEO of Anytime Fitness. "We're searching for local entrepreneurs who share our passion for building relationships and helping others so that we can achieve that vision in communities across the state."
