Kev Foley,
I'm an investor, entrepreneur, and business coach with over 20 years of experience in the fitness industry.
I specialise in acquiring and scaling profitable gyms, helping owners streamline operations, increase revenue, and achieve long-term financial success. As the owner of multiple fitness businesses, I understand what it takes to build sustainable growth in a competitive market.
I spent my first 10 years working from the ground up in health clubs and went on to build and acquire multiple sites across the UK.
I’m passionate about creating a gym group that not only delivers exceptional experiences for members but also provides real career opportunities for staff and teams. I believe a thriving business is built on strong leadership, engaged teams, and a culture that prioritises both client results and staff development.
I’m actively seeking acquisition opportunities in the UK fitness industry, particularly health clubs, gyms and personal training businesses with growth potential.
If you're a business owner considering an exit, I’d love to explore how we can create a win-win scenario.
I’ve worked in every area of fitness you can think of—starting as a self-employed personal trainer and group exercise instructor, progressing through roles in health clubs across management, operations, sales, and marketing, and eventually building my own business into a successful studio.
I’ve built and scaled successful fitness businesses, grown through strategic acquisitions, and coached gym owners globally to improve profitability and streamline operations.
Having grown a business from the ground up, I understand every stage of the journey and what it takes to succeed in this industry.
