Description

This is a rare “Platform Acquisition” opportunity to acquire a protected monopoly in one of the most affluent and fast-growing fitness markets in the nation: Austin, Texas.

The offering includes a highly profitable, self-sustaining flagship studio and a newly constructed, turnkey growth studio—plus the Exclusive Territory Rights to the entire Austin metro area. This is not just a purchase of two gyms; it is the acquisition of a “fortress market” with the infrastructure to scale from two locations to five or more without fear of cannibalization or competition from within the brand.

Backed by a premier strength-driven franchise brand, this portfolio is an operational powerhouse. The business was recently honored with the MVP Award at the 2025 Franchise Conference for having the best staff and client culture in the entire national system. Because of this operational excellence, these studios serve as the brand’s Official Regional Training Center, allowing a new owner to train staff in-house, saving thousands in travel costs and streamlining expansion.

Whether you are a multi-unit operator, a private equity group, or an owner-operator seeking a lifestyle change, this portfolio offers a “derisked launchpad” with immediate cash flow, a 10-year lease secured on the newest asset, and a proven management team in place.

Reason for Sale

The founders, who built this community from the ground up, are exiting to pursue long-term family goals and relocation. They are committed to a successful handover and are willing to remain for a transition period of 6–12 months to ensure operational continuity.

Training & Support

This business is structured to thrive with or without daily owner presence. The current managers are capable leaders who run day-to-day operations, payroll, and culture, making this ideal for an investor or semi-absentee owner.

Owner Qualifications

The next owner should bring strong leadership and organizational skills, along with a genuine appreciation for the power of community and culture. A fitness background is helpful, but not required. This business can absolutely be run by an absentee owner. It has exceptional leadership already in place. The three managers are more than capable of representing the brand and being the face of the studios, and they are already doing an outstanding job in that role.

Competition

Our client’s main competition comes from Orangetheory Fitness, F45 and other local fitness centers. What sets our client’s studios apart from their competition is the franchise training philosophy, community, proven retention and prime facilities.

Potential Growth

• Immediate: The newer North location is currently rebounding under experienced new leadership, with projected revenue growth of 10–15% annually over the next three years as it matures into its capacity.

• Long-Term: With the infrastructure and brand reputation already established, a new owner can leverage the Exclusive Territory Rights to open additional units in high-demand neighborhoods across the booming Austin metro area

The growth potential for is both immediate and long term. In the short term, our newer location is already on a promising upswing under new leadership. With continued local marketing efforts, high-impact facility upgrades, and focused retention strategies, it’s on the cusp of becoming a top performer within the franchise.

The more established location continues to operate as a flagship studio, delivering exceptional retention and profitability. While already strong, there is still room for growth through targeted lead generation campaigns, expanding small group and corporate training offerings, and further optimizing retail and apparel sales.

Longer term, we hold the exclusive rights to the entire metro territory. With only two open locations and a city that continues to grow rapidly, there is substantial opportunity to add several new studios in high-demand neighborhoods. As more locations open, the franchise will become increasingly recognized as a household name. With operational systems already in place, a loyal client base, experienced leadership, and the backing of a nationally growing brand, the area would benefit from more locations.
