Core Health & Fitness announce partnership with Oss Fitness in Spain

Core Health & Fitness is pleased to announce it’s signed an exclusive agreement with Oss Fitness for the distribution of its brands in the commercial and residential markets across Spain.

Oss Fitness specialises in offering their customers exceptional service including point of sale, installations, after-sales care, and product training, with over 20 years of industry experience.

Michel Somford, director of Core Health & Fitness European sales, comments: “We’re pleased to partner with Oss Fitness as our new sales entity in Spain – they have the scale, infrastructure, reputation and industry experience to make Core’s products a market leader in Spain.

“This strategic partnership allows us both to continue to reinforce our mission of providing the Spanish market with the industry’s best products and services available. Oss Fitness shares our passion for offering excellent customer service, training and education whilst bringing innovative products to the market.”

Under the terms of the agreement, Oss Fitness will now exclusively distribute the products from Core’s full product portfolio including, Star Trac cardio equipment, StairMaster HIIT products, Nautilus commercial strength products, Schwinn indoor cycling bikes and Throwdown for functional fitness solutions.

Rafael Rodriguez, manager and owner of Oss Fitness, says: “After so many years of experience in the professional fitness sector, it’s an honour for me to be able to join Core’s network as a distributor and to be able to offer our clients the quality and prestige of the brands that this company represents”.

Oss fitness provides a full service, from distribution through to machine maintenance and repair. It has just opened an impressive 30,000sq m warehouse in Pegalajar (Jaén) which enables them to hold a large stock of equipment and spare parts.

Oss fitness offers a professional and fast service to customers, with a network of over 40 technicians across Spain.

Kevin Malanga, vice president, global business development and customer finance, says: “In selecting a partner for one of the most important fitness markets in Europe, Oss fitness is the perfect match, not only from a systems standpoint but also culturally aligning with our core values.

“We look forward to growing our relationship with Oss, lending them our full support and aiding their commercial growth strategy in Spain.”

This latest announcement follows on from the news that Core Health & Fitness has signed an exclusive supplier agreement with Energie Fitness - Iberia, Spain’s leading health club initiative for the roll-out of 75 clubs in Spain and Portugal over the next 10 years.
