Planet Fitness health club membership

Planet Fitness is one of the largest and fastest-growing franchisors and operators of fitness centers in the world. Founded in 1992 in Dover, New Hampshire, the brand revolutionized the fitness industry by creating a high-quality, low-cost experience in a welcoming and non-intimidating environment known as the Judgement Free Zone®.

The service is provided physically across thousands of locations globally, primarily in the United States, Puerto Rico, Canada, Panama, Mexico, and Australia. While the brand is American by origin and ownership, individual clubs are typically owned and operated by independent franchisees who manage the local day-to-day operations under the corporate brand standards.

Owned by Planet Fitness, Inc., the company has grown from a single gym to a major publicly traded entity on the New York Stock Exchange. The brand continues to expand its international footprint, leveraging a scalable franchise model that emphasizes affordability and a distinct purple-and-yellow aesthetic.
