Snap Fitness

Kevin Yates, CEO of Lift Brands’ owning company in the EMEA region, discusses why now is an exciting time to invest in the thriving fitness industry.

Zabir Ali, franchisee and owner of Snap Fitness Fareham is the UK’s largest franchisee for Boots Opticians. Looking to diversify his portfolio, Zabir wanted an opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of people in his community. Familiar with the physical and mental benefits an inclusive gym community can have, Zabir decided to stick to his roots and invest in a Snap Fitness franchise.

Having first joined the Snap Fitness network as a Club Manager in 2014, John oversaw the opening of the fourth-ever Snap Fitness in the UK. Fast forward to 2023 and he’s now a franchisee, opening his first site in Addlestone, Surrey, with a pipeline for many more.

Previously working for the NHS, Stefan wanted to become his own boss and invest in the resilient fitness industry. After purchasing an existing Snap Fitness location, he has secured further territories and is ready to scale his investment.

A key priority for Snap Fitness in the UK & Ireland is modernising its existing locations. See the fantastic transformation of Snap Fitness Burntwood, which got an exciting new look in 2024.
