The business behind the name

Francis began the business with an interest in lifting and the clothing used around it. Product development and relationships within the fitness community became connected parts of the company story. The early direct relationship with customers helped give the brand a recognizable place among people who train.

How the offering fits together

The core product is apparel: items customers choose for fit, function and style. Publishing and community activity create additional ways to encounter the brand, while the store turns that recognition into a concrete shopping experience. Gymshark's development also brought new operating and leadership responsibilities as the business grew. The current catalogue supplies product details and market availability.
