As part of our rapid UK expansion, we are expanding our footprint in the South with our brand new Southampton store. Complete with a 42-spot studio, TRIB3 Southampton is gearing up to open in December. Owned by franchise partner, Tom Hampton, this store will be located at Southampton’s Cultural Quarter on the ground floor of a 500+ bedroom student accommodation development in close proximity to shops, restaurants and bars.

The new opening in Southampton will launch alongside further upcoming franchised locations in Woking, Ealing and Balham plus a host of upcoming locations to be announced soon!

Our scalable and unique ‘volume boutique’ model makes franchising with TRIB3 a really viable option for people looking to start their own business and join the positive and booming boutique fitness sector. That’s what attracted Tom to TRIB3.

Having worked in the finance industry for 15 years, he was looking to do something more entrepreneurial and for an opportunity to start his own business in an industry he’s passionate about - fitness and sport.

Tom found the perfect match in TRIB3. In order to maintain a healthy lifestyle, he became an avid gym goer but wanted more than just the regular gym experience. Tom tried a variety of workouts over the years including yoga, spin and a variety in between, but found the most enjoyable in the experiential boutique HIIT sector.

Tom’s 15 years’ experience of being a gym customer and researching different fitness models has given him a great understanding of what customers in this category want. In partnering with TRIB3, he’s has found the perfect solution to what he always wanted as a consumer, and moving forward, as a boutique fitness studio owner.

Tom says: “I’m so excited to be joining the TRIB3 family and opening my first franchise in this growing and exciting industry. I’ve been an avid participant of boutique fitness workouts so to own and operate a fitness facility with a premium experience was a perfect transition. When I discovered the team at TRIB3, their energy and unique concept, I just knew I found the perfect match in TRIB3.”

Between the turnkey solution and dedicated support team to assist across all business functions to guide me through the process, it’s great to be at the forefront of this movement and trend and bring TRIB3’s unique and results-driven workout to the community of Southampton.”

TRIB3 CEO Kevin Yates says: “It brings me great excitement to keep welcoming new franchise partners to our family and helping them realise their own ambitions to own their own business. A big focus of our growth this year is on the UK market so I’m delighted to welcome Tom to the family with the passion that he brings to the journey and really looking forward to bringing the TRIB3 experience to Southampton.”
