Jetset Pilates, the Miami, FL-based Reformer Pilates franchise, announced that the company is entering the Chicago area after signing its first franchise deals for new locations in Naperville and Winnetka, IL.
The company is eyeing Lakeview, Lincoln Park, West Loop, River North, Gold Coast, Wicker Park, Evanston, and Oak Brook as part of its expansion plans for 10-to-15 additional studios in the greater Chicago metro area.
Jetset reported that the Pilates market will grow from $158.4 billion in 2023 to $421.0 billion by 2032, particularly in urban and suburban areas, and sees the greater Chicago area as a prime location for growth.
“The city’s accessibility to bike paths, lakefront running trails and parks support active lifestyles, with many residents actively seeking new and innovative fitness experiences. These neighborhoods align with Jetset Pilates’ mission to bring a unique, music-infused Pilates experience to an active customer base,” the company said in a media release.
“Chicago offers a highly engaged fitness audience and a strong demand for boutique wellness experiences,” said Bert Albertse, CEO of Jetset Pilates. “It’s a city of diverse, tight-knit communities, each with its own personality, and we’re confident that Jetset’s elevated, consistent experience will resonate with the Chicagoland communities.”
Jetset Pilates recently achieved the sale of 100 franchise locations.
“Launching in Chicago is an exciting step forward for us, and we’re eager to expand in such a dynamic city with the right franchise partners,” said Tamara Galinsky, founder and brand president of Jetset Pilates. “We’re actively looking for passionate franchise owners who share our vision to meet the city’s growing demand for innovative fitness solutions and bring the Jetset Pilates experience to more communities across the area.”
