Snap Fitness has celebrated the start of 2025 with the opening of its 350th club in the Asia-Pacific region at Kiama in NSW - a milestone opening that coincided with club memberships across the surpass 300,000 across APAC.

Advising that the milestone was a great start to 2025, which is set to be a busy year for Snap Fitness, Lift Brands Asia Pacific Chief Executive, Chris Caldwell stated “marking our 350th APAC opening is an exciting milestone for Snap Fitness as it showcases the tremendous growth the brand has experienced in recent years.

“Last year we recorded 67 new franchise sales across Australia and New Zealand and experienced a record number of new franchise enquiries. We also opened 23 clubs - 17 in Australia and New Zealand and six in Asia.

“We are expecting momentum to continue in 2025 as we open more clubs and secure new territories, including our first entry into the Cairns market next month.”

“The Cairns market is an exciting growth area for Snap Fitness - it’s experiencing strong population growth as well as the development of new housing corridors. This mix means we will be able to establish a strong presence right across the region.

With projections that the fitness industry will continue to grow, Caldwell noted “increased demand from consumers seeking an affordable and accessible fitness option has a flow-on effect with the increased brand awareness making Snap Fitness an attractive investment for potential franchisees.

“With a strong brand presence and a robust franchise system, Snap Fitness is a fantastic opportunity for savvy business owners to be part of a network that offers full support, marketing and training every step of the way.

“We are proud of the work our franchise development and operations teams have been doing in recent years to spearhead our growth - ensuring our clubs are successful from the first day is very important to us.”

This year, Snap Fitness is gearing up for another busy year with a strong pipeline of new clubs set to open including 25 in Australia and New Zealand region and 11 across Asia.

Additionally, Snap Fitness is prioritising the modernisation of existing clubs with plans to revamp 52 locations with an upgraded member experience.
