The Company's mission is to enhance people's lives by providing a high-quality fitness experience in a welcoming, non-intimidating environment, which we call the Judgement Free Zone®. More than 90% of Planet Fitness stores are owned and men and women.

For more than 30 years, Planet Fitness has offered affordable, accessible membership options for both regular and first-time gym goers. With more than 2,500+ locations, 90 per cent of which are owned and operated independently, the brand continues to offer its Judgement Free Zone® and non-intimidating environment globally. Since 2014, its expansion into Canada has led to 76 clubs across six provinces.

Planet Fitness entered the franchising industry in 2003, after refining its brand and approach to business. Prospective franchisees can consider many lucrative territories across Canada and join the 76 other clubs owned by like-minded fitness enthusiasts.
