The government of Saudi Arabia lifted curfew
across all regions of the country, except Makkah as of 26th April.
While the order allows shopping centers to reopen, gyms, beauty clinics,
salons, cinemas and restaurants will continue to be restricted from re-opening.
In light of the Covid situation, Fitness Time,
the leading fitness services brand in Saudi Arabia, has drafted a brief outline
for reopening its clubs post the opening of the curfew. It aims to start a
Marketing Campaign in June 2020, and hopes to target SAR 100 million
subscription income.
The Saudi government in March 2020, launched the
“Your Home, Your Gym” campaign, encouraging citizens to workout at home and
share their videos online. The initiative has been supported by the Ministry of
Sports and the Saudi Arabian Olympics Committee.
Government Initiatives set to Drive Future Growth:
The Saudi government is now playing an extensive
part in developing the fitness levels of the citizens of the country. High
obesity levels, high inactiveness levels and low participation rates in
physical activities are problems prevalent across both men and women in Saudi
Arabia. The licensing of female only gyms was a step in the right direction,
towards improving fitness levels of women in the Kingdom. Regular health camps,
releasing of online workout videos through partnership with fitness trainers
and other initiatives towards enhancing the physical activity levels of Saudi
Arabian citizens will act as a stimulus towards the growing adoption of fitness
services in the Kingdom.
Fitness Services Diversification and Portfolio
Expansion: There has been a
stress towards developing additional and supplementary services, on the part of
fitness service brands. The move has been a reaction to increasing demand for
services such as Zumba classes, Pilates, Cross-fit, Kickboxing, MMA, Sauna,
Salon and Spa among many others. Moreover, gyms are now offering their members
the entire fitness service solution, by offering nutritional products such as
dietary supplements and proteins, fitness apparel and fitness products. In this
way, they are catering to the entire fitness journey of their members, from
fitness activities, to diet to consultation. This trend would be in focus in
the future, with fitness brands looking to focus more on enhancing member
retention through enhanced customer satisfaction.
Emergence of Online Workouts: With the Covid situation restricting any
face-to-face fitness activity during the curfew period in the Kingdom, many
fitness brands have resorted to digital methods to keep their members fit and
engaged. Fitness service brands have started to regularly post online workout
videos accompanied by heath and diet tips, to assist their members to workout
from the comfort of their home. Some fitness centres have also introduced paid
online personal classes, which allow the customer to virtually simulate the
workout routine, with the help of a personal trainer. The curfew period for
gyms, may act as a blessing in disguise for gym centres, as with the help of technology,
they are now able to target an even larger audience, which may enroll full-time
at the gym, once the situation eases out.
