California Fitness commits $25 million to Vietnam
California Fitness & Yoga today announced a $25 million commitment to Vietnam, with the investment earmarked for the renovation of multiple clubs, the continued upgrade and innovation of the products and services it offers its members, and for the renewal of leases in prime locations in both Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.
The fitness pioneer this week inked deals that will extend the leases of four of its clubs – Pico Plaza and Hung Vuong Plaza in Ho Chi Minh City; and Capital Building and Sky City Tower in Hanoi, representing a significant milestone for California Fitness and its partners, driven by a shared vision and values.
Since its establishment in 2007, California Fitness has been dedicated to empowering individuals to achieve their health and wellness goals in state-of-the-art workout environments. The ongoing collaboration with these partners ensures the delivery of premium exercise destinations that fosters community, motivation, and personal growth for members. This renewal reaffirms California Fitness’ unwavering commitment to creating an optimal fitness experience for individuals of all fitness levels.
“These four represent some of our original clubs,” said CEO Mr. Dane Fort, noting that his own Vietnam journey began: “in 2007, when Hung Vuong Plaza wasn’t even a ‘plaza’ yet!”. Similarly, Cali’s Hanoi journey began with the Sky City opening in 2010.
“These four locations have helped hundreds-of-thousands of members lead healthier lives,” he said.
“The renewal of the leasing contracts is part of California Fitness’ ongoing pledge to bring health, happiness, and hope not just to its members, but to all 100 million people in Vietnam.”
“We will continue to innovate our clubs to provide the best fitness hub for years to come,” he said, acknowledging a bevy of club enhancements lined up in the near future. These include cutting-edge workout facilities from top brands like Technogym, Matrix, and True Fitness, as well as new visual and lighting systems and other innovations, ensuring exceptional workout spaces for generations. Additionally, two Yoga Plus Clubs in Ho Chi Minh City are expanding to offer full California services.
California Fitness will shortly launch its “One Life Live Well” campaign, aligning with its hundred-million-man mission. The campaign introduces a revolutionary membership program that includes benefits like an extra membership, a smartwatch, reward points for VIP workout sessions, and more. Furthermore, the team plans to organize the largest-ever Fitness Expo, giving away a thousand free memberships.
“We only get one life, so live well,” Fort concluded with a smile.
