People often say that swiss active is the association of chain operators! Is that true?
This is often assumed about swiss active, but that’s not actually the case. However, it is true that chain operators are also among our members, which swiss active is proud of — especially since these chain operators also make a significant contribution to the positive development of the industry.
Representatives of chain operators were also involved in the original initiative to establish the organization. At that time, the motivation was the escalation among various industry stakeholders regarding the Qualitop label. Qualitop, however, is not a label owned by chain operators; it has always been the Q-label of the fitness industry. The label has always stood — and still stands — for the integration of all interests, including both chain operators and small businesses.
Chain operators have been a key factor in the strong growth and professionalization of the industry. At the same time, chain operators have also brought their disadvantages. The fact is that every industry that is both economically and socio-socially relevant needs both large and small providers.
swiss active is fascinated by how many small studios demonstrate agility and develop innovative, high-quality solutions and ideas. In fact, chain operators learn a great deal from these smaller centers.
For this reason, swiss active aims to work in partnership and on equal terms with all players in the industry.
Who is behind swiss active?
swiss active is an association founded in 2017, motivated in part by the idea that fitness center operator — regardless of size — could exchange ideas and, in doing so, create added value for themselves
Behind swiss active are a variety of fitness operators, ranging from small studios to representatives of chain operators.
What are the benefits of membership and the added value for the customer?
swiss active is a shared platform where all stakeholders in the industry — such as fitness center operators, end customers, related associations, and health insurers — can exchange ideas and benefit from this interaction in their daily work.
In the future, we will continue to be active with many new and exciting initiatives. The focus will always remain on maintaining a strong stance for the industry.
