This is a phenomenal opportunity to acquire a small chain of two health and fitness clubs designed for women, operating over an exclusive territory encompassing Prestwich and Radcliffe.

Curvess is a women's only Health Club and Fitness Centre franchise operation that has its origins in Texas when the first club of its kind opened its doors in 1992. Curves has an innovative, 30 minute fitness conceit combined with strength training and sustained cardiovascular activity through safe and effective hydraulic resistance which has helped create and develop an enviable reputation. The franchise operation caught on like wild fire and opened clubs at an astronomical rate, sometimes more than doubling its number of locations from year to year. Curves has nearly 10,000 clubs in more than 85 countries serving more than 4 million members, this is a tremendous opportunity to be part of this superb franchise operation. With so many clubs, Curves has a back up service that is second to none, offering its members advice, motivation and all important marketing services which help individual clubs seek out new members to allow the business to develop. These two clubs have over 500 members in all and due to its cleaver, geographical placement members are encouraged to visit both clubs enabling the owners to be extremely flexible with their time. The Curves staff also operate over the two locations which help the current owners keep staff costing to a minimum to develop more profit.
