Iñigo Salinas, the Asia-Pacific Marketing Manager of the Spain-based company, noted “our value proposition is based on three cornerstones: a high-quality product, connectivity and technology.

“We have proprietary software to manage users and facilities called GYMLOOP, which is integrated with our cardio, strength and indoor cycling equipment, allowing us to offer our Australian customers a set of tools - routine management, class booking, gamification - that help to increase their retention rates and optimise the management of their fitness centres”.

In a significant development this year, the brand signed a sponsorship agreement with Atlético Madrid football club, recently crowned champions of the Spanish La Liga soccer league, and upgraded the equipment in the club’s training facilities with its premium MOVEMIA range, especially designed for high performance in sports and the most demanding facilities.

Griffin added “we are delighted to have a European brand of the calibre of BH Fitness in our portfolio, offering us a huge range of options for the various markets that we are targeting.’
