Crunch Fitness Targets Phoenix With 20-Club Expansion
A massive fitness footprint is landing in Arizona as Southwest Fitness Holdings prepares to open 20 Crunch locations across the Phoenix region by the end of 2027. The aggressive rollout begins with five initial sites currently in presale, signaling a major push to capture the local market with the brand’s signature model.
Each new club requires an approximate $5 million investment and is expected to generate upwards of 70 jobs, potentially creating 1,500 roles across the region as the full 20-location plan reaches completion. CEO Tony Scrimale noted the centers will provide a mix of traditional strength equipment and specialized offerings like the HIITZone, Hot Studio, and recovery amenities. Some sites will also host the brand’s premium tier, Crunch Select, which aims to blend elevated features with the company’s standard low-cost, no-contract membership model starting at $9.99 per month.
