Fitness Ventures Surpasses 500,000 Members, Accelerates Expansion Across the U.S.

ORLANDO, Fla., March 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Fitness Ventures, one of the fastest-growing Crunch Fitness franchisees, has surpassed 500,000 members, marking a major milestone in its continued expansion across the country. The company's rapid growth has been fueled by its commitment to providing high-quality, affordable fitness experiences and its investment in cutting-edge facilities.

Fitness Ventures has grown significantly since it was founded in 2016 and now operates over 70 clubs, either open or in presale, across 27 different states and has additional development rights to continue its rapid development pace across the U.S.  Fitness Ventures' continued success has been accelerated by its strategic partnership with Meaningful Partners, a purpose-driven private equity firm that invested in the company in 2024. This partnership has fueled Fitness Ventures' expansion plans, combining the strengths and expertise of both organizations to enhance growth through new development, mergers, and acquisitions.

"Our growth is a testament to the incredible team we've built, our commitment to delivering an unmatched fitness experience, and the strong communities that continue to support us," said Brian Hibbard, CEO of Fitness Ventures. "Surpassing 500,000 members is a huge achievement, but we're just getting started. We have big plans ahead as we continue to expand and elevate the Crunch brand."

With new locations set to open in 2025 throughout the country, Fitness Ventures remains laser-focused on scaling the Crunch brand, upgrading member experiences, and solidifying its position as an industry leader. Surpassing 500,000 is a strong indicator of the company's momentum, and Fitness Ventures is committed to pushing the boundaries of growth even further.
