Crunch Franchise Disclosure Document

Crunch is a fitness franchise offering low-cost gyms and premium Crunch Signature clubs with additional amenities. Founded in 1989 in New York City, it now operates hundreds of locations throughout the U.S. and internationally. Franchisees typically invest in either high-volume, low-cost models or larger premium facilities. The business relies on recurring revenue through memberships, with add-on services such as personal training. Upfront investment is significant due to gym buildout and equipment, but large membership bases allow for economies of scale. Franchisees benefit from national marketing and brand recognition in the competitive fitness space.

With nearly 40,000 FDDs collected over the past 25+ years, our growing database is maintained and enriched by a dedicated information management team that ensures accuracy, completeness, and timely updates. Just as important, FRANdata understands that while FDDs offer a wealth of standardized information, they may not address every question a stakeholder has—particularly when it comes to franchise performance, operational nuances, or long-term growth potential. That's why we complement the information in FDDs with broader research and advisory capabilities, helping clients interpret what's there, understand the context, and access deeper insights when needed.
