The Gym Group has signed a 15-year lease for a new gym at an empty retail warehouse in York, citing the benefits from “the rapidly changing dynamics of the retail property market”.
The company, which operates 183 low-cost gyms, said the site will create 12 jobs after a circa £1.4m investment.
The location, on Foss Island Road next to a Halfords store, has been vacant since 2018. It will add a 5,000 sq ft mezzanine to a floorplate of 10,000 sq ft, and is expected to open in Q1 2021.
