The private sector of the global health club industry is on a high, with continued growth in 2016, according to the 2017 IHRSA Global Report, which was published in May.
Total industry revenue reached an estimated US$83.1 billion, as roughly 200,000 clubs served 162 million members worldwide. The markets in North America and Europe continued to grow, while markets in Latin America also posted strong performances (See HCM June 2017, page 70).
The outlook of the private health club industry is promising and the sector is expected to thrive in the global marketplace, serving consumers with a variety of health and fitness needs.
With access to fitness amenities, instructors, personal trainers and coaches, club operators are well-positioned to lead a healthier world.
