The small box format openings will be in addition to the continued expansion of the company's standard format estate, which will continue to be rolled out at a rate of 15-20 new sites per year, it said.
The Gym Group also said it had entered into a new four-year, £70m revolving credit facility provided by HSBC, Natwest and Banco de Sabadell. It replaces the existing £60m facilities on improved terms and "will provide flexibility to execute the company’s strategy".
