Own a 24/7 gym franchise in York with Anytime Fitness, combining a recognised international brand, predictable subscription-based income and a proven fitness business model.
This opportunity enables investors to establish a premium mid-market health and fitness club backed by one of the world's largest gym franchise networks. Anytime Fitness operates approximately 8,000 clubs globally, providing franchisees with established brand credibility, operational systems and a membership-focused business model. Top-performing UK clubs generate approximately £240,000 annual profit, although individual results vary and returns are not guaranteed.
York offers a potential market for an Anytime Fitness franchise targeting customers seeking convenient access to modern fitness facilities. The 24-hour gym concept caters to a broad membership base, while high-quality equipment and an ongoing five-year club refresh programme help maintain brand standards and member appeal. Unlike percentage-based royalty models, Anytime Fitness charges fixed franchise fees, meaning royalty payments do not automatically increase alongside turnover.
Franchise owners can focus on developing a loyal membership community, maintaining service standards and overseeing a small operational team. The model also offers the potential to expand beyond one location, with some franchisees operating multiple clubs and transitioning towards portfolio management. The business is designed to support both single-club ownership and longer-term expansion ambitions.
New franchisees receive structured pre-opening support, including membership presales guidance, followed by ongoing assistance from experienced Franchise Performance Coaches. Opening a club requires £185,000 in capital plus additional funding, with access to introductions to established lending partners.
