Health & Fitness Nordic appoints Precor

HFN Sweden AB (HFN), Scandinavia’s largest health club operator, has awarded an exclusive contract to Precor to deliver all its cardiovascular and strength machine equipment.

Following its recent merger with Elixia, HFN is one of the largest operators in Europe, with more than 200 clubs across a number of sectors, from high-end to low-cost, and more than 500,000 members.

The new partnership will see the equipment manufacturer and supplier provide CV as well as selectorised and plate-loaded strength equipment to both SATS and Elixia clubs, as well as some Fresh Fitness clubs.

Precor has a long relationship with HFN, having supplied CV equipment to its SATS brand of clubs for more than four years.

Thomas Werneman, Precor account manager for the Nordic region, said: “After the merger between SATS and ELIXIA, HFN is the largest chain of clubs in the region and the second largest in Europe, so to be awarded the exclusive supplier contract for the three main product categories is a great recognition of Precor and our partners in Scandinavia.

"Our aim has always been to deliver a premium product with a superior user experience, and above all take responsibility for great after-sales support. The continued trust from SATS ELIXIA shows that our joint work and dedication is paying off.”
