Women-only gym franchise splits
posted on 30th August 2016
A group of women-only gyms in Wellington has split from the national Configure Express franchise. While both sides have insisted the split was 'amicable', neither will comment on the reasons behind it, citing a confidentiality agreement. In a statement, Configure Express says the move to 'part ways' was in the best interests of both companies.
The four former gyms on Willis St, Lambton Quay, Lower Hutt and Upper Hutt, have now rebranded as Revive Fitness.
Lambton Quay Revive Fitness general manager Sheree Cooper would not say why the company had left the franchise, citing a confidentiality agreement.
It would be business as usual for the gyms and members, she said.
Members were under contract with the owners of the gym and not the franchise, so their contacts would not change, she said. If they wanted to remain with the Configure franchise, she said members should speak to her on an individual basis.
