PURE GYM

Contract advice for UK roll out

We have advised Pure Gym since 2009 when it opened its first gym in Spinningfields, Manchester, and have advised two of the directors in the growth and disposal of Golden Tulip hotel chain (subsequently sold to Whitbread). We advised on contract negotiations for over 80 sites around the UK during their impressive roll-out of the key fob access gym model.

Our involvement includes drafting JCT contracts and ancillary documents for the fit outs with institutional landlords as well as any further contractual input once works are underway.
