Ultrasis opens up new market with contract win at LA Fitness
Ultrasis is pleased to announce an arrangement with leading fitness club operator LA Fitness, under which its award winning online health and wellbeing program, GetFit Health Manager, will be offered to LA Fitness's 220,000+ individual members and corporate clients. It is intended that this will develop into a significant business opportunity for both companies.
Commenting on the partnership, Peter Harrington, Group Sales Director at LA Fitness, said:
"An increasing number of our members cite personal health and wellbeing goals as the primary reason they join our clubs. Our corporate customers have also asked whether we could provide a service that would help them engage their workforces in healthier living. In Ultrasis we believe we have found the right partner to address these needs and their program will add significant value to being an LA Fitness member."
The GetFit Health Manager solution will be introduced to corporate members from October this year and then to individual members shortly thereafter.
Nigel Brabbins, CEO of Ultrasis said:
"We're delighted to be working with LA Fitness and look forward to supporting them in delivering personalised health and wellbeing services to their members. This is another example of how our programs are being embraced by market leading companies from the private sector. We look forward to developing our relationship with LA Fitness."
