Whether it's a flourishing franchise at the top of its game or a budding business making its first inroads into the industry, the Elite Franchise 100 allows franchise brands to duke it out and gain recognition for the impact they've had on British franchising.”

The Elite Franchise Top 100 ranks franchises according to a broad range of criteria from their financial performance and heritage in the industry, to their contribution to the community and the way they embrace innovation.

The Elite Franchise editorial team stated: “Having helped bring access to quality fitness facilities to the masses, énergie Fitness has seen truly impressive growth, which made it a shoo-in for a high ranking. But its attitude to innovation was the clincher, wowing the Elite Franchise judges with its tech-infused new concept thé YARD, offering not only high-intensity training but also fitness-tracking wearables to help amateur athletes and fitness fanatics achieve their goals. Given it's making waves in the industry year on year, an exciting future evidently lies ahead for énergie Fitness.”

Commenting on the ranking, Andrew Croney, Head of Marketing and Communications at énergie Fitness said: “We are delighted to have achieved a top ranking within this comprehensive franchise listing. The list features many of the world’s leading franchise brands and to be ranked in the top 15 UK franchises is a fantastic achievement for the énergie brand.”

We are hugely excited for the future of énergie Fitness and that of our franchisees.”
