Gesundheit: Fitnessbranche sieht beim Wachstum „noch viel Luft nach oben“ – Weitere Konsolidierung erwartet
Mitgliederrekorde und noch weiteres Potenzial: Die Fitnessbranche in Deutschland ist aus mehreren Gründen optimistisch. Anbieter Lifefit peilt eine halbe Milliarde Euro Umsatz an.
The German fitness industry anticipates continued expansion, with Chief Commercial Officer Christophe Collinet of Lifefit Group expecting single-digit percentage growth in the coming years. The sector already reached record highs last year, with membership numbers increasing from 10.3 million in 2022 to 12.4 million. Revenue also surged by over seven percent to reach 6.25 billion euros.
Collinet highlighted the industry's resilience during economic downturns, emphasizing the Lifefit Group's presence across Germany and Austria through over 230 fitness studios and more than 750,000 members. Brands like Fitness First and Barry's Bootcamp fall under the Lifefit umbrella. The European Sports Week currently offers free trial sessions at thousands of fitness studios from various brands, aiming to reach those who have not previously had access to regular training.
This outreach is seen as a significant opportunity for the fitness industry to promote movement and prevention.
