10 New K Fitness Branches Set to Open in Cities Outside Jakarta

Inspa Kyoto – 10 new K Fitness branches are set to open in cities beyond Jakarta as the gym franchise expands its reach. After successfully launching its first branch in Cideng, Central Jakarta, in August 2022, K Fitness now aims to tap into the growing demand for fitness services in other major Indonesian cities. With the rise in health-consciousness among the public, the company sees great potential for growth outside the capital. This expansion plan is fueled by a desire to make quality gym facilities more accessible in areas with less competition.

Expanding Beyond Jakarta

David Kosmo, the founder of K Fitness, believes that markets outside Jakarta offer significant growth opportunities. The growing focus on health and wellness drives the rising demand for fitness centers in these cities. David points out that investors can achieve a return on investment (ROI) in these regions within two years. “Competition outside Jakarta is not as intense as in the capital. Many large cities in Java still lack quality gyms at affordable prices,” he explains.

This year, K Fitness plans to open 10 new branches in various cities across Indonesia. Semarang, Solo, and Yogyakarta top the list for this expansion. These cities have experienced rapid growth, leading to an increasing demand for fitness services. According to David, K Fitness will tailor each branch to meet local preferences and purchasing power. The company plans to offer more flexible and affordable group fitness classes.

Targeting Tier 2 and Tier 3 Cities

Yuswo Hady, a business observer and managing partner at Inventure, believes that K Fitness’ expansion strategy aligns with consumer preferences in smaller cities. People in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities are more focused on affordable membership fees than luxury facilities. They are looking for programs that deliver real results with reasonable investment.

Yuswo also predicts that cities outside Jakarta, such as Surabaya and Semarang, will experience rapid urbanization in the next five years. As the economy grows more evenly, the demand for fitness centers will rise. This shift will lead to a growing number of young workers seeking modern gym facilities, which are still relatively scarce in these areas. This trend creates an opportunity for gym franchises, like K Fitness, to tap into a new market.

Opportunities for Growth in Smaller Cities

The development of infrastructure and stable purchasing power in these cities will generate new demand for healthy lifestyle services. “Considering these factors, the business prospects outside Greater Jakarta remain very promising. Yuswo says, “These areas aren’t saturated with competition, which leaves room for new players to enter and grow.”

David shares that K Fitness is committed to maintaining the same high-quality standards while operating in less competitive areas. The company continues to prioritize international-standard gym equipment and professional instructors. K Fitness aims to provide the best fitness experience for its members.

Competitive Membership Prices

David highlights that K Fitness offers competitive pricing to make gym memberships accessible to a wider audience. The cheapest membership costs around IDR 190,000 per month with a two-year commitment. This pricing strategy aims to appeal to a larger group of people, especially in smaller cities where affordability is a key concern.

K Fitness is determined to maintain high standards while ensuring that it keeps its facilities affordable for the local population. The company plans to balance quality with price to meet the growing demand for fitness services outside Jakarta.
