Xercise4Less unveils new Wakefield club
Budget fitness chain Xercise4Less has unveiled its second club with the opening of a 27,000sq ft (2,508sq m) property in Wakefield, West Yorkshire.
The new £600,000 facility has been created within a former Allied Carpets store and forms part of wider plans to roll out a further 10-15 sites within the next five years. More than £230,000 worth of equipment has been installed in the outlet's fitness suite, which features Cybex resistance and Life Fitness cv machines supplied by Physique.
Stirling free weights are also provided as part of the centre's offering, with a leasing package put together by Leasedirect Finance helping to supply the 200-station fitness suite. Xercise4Less managing director Jon Wright said: "We now intend to roll out the Xercise4Less model as quickly as we can and open another 10 - 15 sites within the next five years.
"We are in advanced negotiations to open our third club in spring 2011 and have two more earmarked for later on in the year." Graham Bertrand, managing director of Physique - part of the PTE group, added: "This contract demonstrates our ability to deliver high quality remanufactured equipment that competes with the installation of new equipment, even in high footfall budget clubs."
