This franchise, which started operation in 2009, is a fully automated, unmanned gym specialising in weight loss and toning as well as strength and cardiac conditioning.

Open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the gyms utilise a fingerprint access control system and a circuit training timer which guides gym users through a full body cardio-strength workout in 30 minutes.

With its head office gym in NSW’s Wagga Wagga, D’Fine247 plans to open another 20 gyms across Australia this year.

Director John Sparshott explains: D’Fine247 has had a very good response from people wanting franchises in Western Australia and we plan to open 40 gyms there in the next five years.
