Health Clubs

According to International Health Racquetball Sports Association (IHRSA.org) statistics, food and beverage sales ranked 6th (11.7%) out of the most profitable programs a club has to offers.

As part of a survey, clubs were asked to identify their five most profitable programs or services - i.e., those programs with the greatest net operating revenue before overhead.

  1. Personal Training                     50.5%
  2. Massage Therapy                     28.2% 
  3. Pro Shop                                26.2%
  4. Aquatics Program                     24.3%
  5. Tennis Programs                       20.5%
  6. Food & Beverage Sales              11.7%
  7. Tanning                                    9.7%
  8. Physical Therapy                        7.8%
  9. Summer Camps                          7.8%
  10. Kids Programs                            6.8%
  11. Martial Arts                                6.8%  

In most cases, after overhead, clubs are only making 10% profit, an average vending commission. The fact is most clubs want to get out of selling retail!  The vending industry has a large opportunity because of unwanted club micro management and low profit margins.
