Everlast Gyms has confirmed the acquisition of four sites from Roko Health Clubs, in Chiswick, Gillingham, Nottingham and York.
Upgrades are planned to deliver a state-of-the-art experience, the addition of padel courts is under consideration. Daniel Summerson, managing director of Everlast Gyms, says: "This acquisition marks an exciting milestone for Everlast Gyms as we continue to expand our fitness category and grow our presence across the UK.
“These premium gyms align with our vision to provide top-tier fitness experiences and we see significant potential to enhance and expand these sites in the future. With this addition, we’re not only growing our estate but also reinforcing our commitment to innovation and excellence in the fitness industry.”
Everlast Gyms is also rolling out modernisations across its existing estate. In the last few months the Leicester, Thurrock and Swindon locations have all benefited from the updates, including modernised group training studios, heavy strength zones and dedicated Hyrox training areas.
Building on this momentum, Everlast Gyms plans to elevate its Cheltenham site in early 2025, while also expanding to key cities across the UK, including Liverpool and will open its first site in the Republic of Ireland later this year.
Summerson, says: “These developments further demonstrate Everlast Gyms' commitment to raising the bar and delivering unparalleled fitness experiences for its members and cements our reputation as a leader in the fitness industry and a hub for innovative workout experiences.”
Everlast operates around 60 gyms across the UK and Ireland, delivering a fusion big box and boutique-style group training along with food and beverage offerings.
Summerson is interviewed in the January issue of HCM, where he talks about the lessons he learned through his experience with boutique brand, Trib3, which he co-founded with Kevin Yates. Sign up here for a free digital issue.
