Sheffield boutique gym chain launches two new venues

Boutique gym chain TRIB3 has announced the opening of two new venues in Sheffield.

TRIB3, which centres on maximising conditioning, physical and mental performance, has been spearheaded by David Cross, managing director of Crossbow Developments and CODA architectural studios.

Launching the first TRIB3 site on Ecclesall Road in Sheffield in 2016, Mr Cross and fellow directors Kevin Yates and Dan Summerson have now opened new gyms at the Krynkl development in Sheffield’s Kelham Island and at the Source Skills Academy in Meadowhall.

hlw Keeble Hawson acted on behalf of the gym chain, which included managing the property leases and advising on corporate and commercial issues of the business.

The law firm, which has offices in Leeds, Sheffield and Doncaster, has acted for Crossbow Developments and CODA since 2007.

TRIB3’s wider growth strategy includes proposing new sites in Leeds and Manchester followed by ten more gyms nationally – and two international deals in the pipeline which hlw Keeble Hawson is also advising on.

David Cross said: “TRIB3’s powerful formula delivered by elite trainers targets select muscle-groups and is proving a major hit.

“We commissioned hlw Keeble Hawson’s commercial property team because of its breadth and depth of expertise.

“Our dynamic vision is coming to fruition ahead of schedule and we look forward to harnessing the raft of opportunities in the UK and overseas.”

Richard Smith, partner and head of hlw Keeble Hawson’s commercial property team, commented: “TRIB3 is a vibrant, commercial venture with a wealth of potential for continued expansion on a regional, national and international scale. We wish David, Kevin, Dan and the team continued success.”
