FlyFit sets sights on three more airports by crowdfunding £750,000
Fitness and wellness studio FlyFit is planning to expand to three more airports next year, while it puts the finishing touches to its first site at Heathrow.
The business, which offers both instructor-led and on-demand classes for travellers, aims to raise £750,000 (US$1m, €853,500) through investment crowdfunding platform Crowdcube and has already achieved more than half of its target, attracting 68 investors.
A statement from FlyFit said: “We are already in partnership discussions with multiple leading lounges, airline alliances, luxury airport concierge and large corporations.”
As reported earlier this year, FlyFit signed a deal with Heathrow Airport to open a studio in Terminal 2.
The 3,000sq ft operation, secured on a nine-year lease, is due to open in early 2018.
The airport studio offers classes to travellers for £45, with other services including meditation, showers, rental gear and healthy snacks.
Health Club Managment reported on in-transit fitness earlier this year.
