Hilton Smythe is delighted to welcome to the market this high end gym and fitness centre which is superbly situated in the increasingly sought after area of Farnborough.
Unit 24 Fitness Centre & Gym was founded by the current owner when he identified a gap in the market. The business has been a real labour of love for him accruing a fantastic reputation along with an impressive number of regular users.
The business is now being sold, albeit reluctantly and with a heavy heart only because our client has another gym business where he is too busy with coaching etc to dedicate the time needed on this business, he is keen to see this gym pass to an ambitious and entrepreneurial new owner who can continue his dream to make this an exceptional fitness centre and take it to the next level.
