Advantage Fitness Products has signed an exclusive, multi-year agreement with Star Trac to provide sales and service of its products in non-membership based fitness facilities across the United States.
- San Jose, CA (1888PressRelease) January 25, 2011 - In what can be termed as the coming together of two of the biggest names in the fitness industry, Advantage Fitness Products has signed an exclusive, multi-year agreement with Star Trac to provide sales and service of its products in non-membership based fitness facilities across the United States.
AFP, which is the leading provider of a full spectrum of fitness and wellness solutions to over 15,000 clients around the world, will now use its expertise for the distribution, marketing and client services for Star Trac equipments.
The agreement with AFP follows Star Trac's acquisition by fitness industry veteran of 20 years Michael Bruno and is in keeping with his vision to expand the depth of the company's product line and service to its customers, according to a statement released by the Irvine, CA-based fitness equipment manufacturer.
Star Trac, which was founded in 1979, is known for its full line of state-of-the-art, user focused cardiovascular and strength equipment. AFP, headquartered in Culver City, CA, is widely recognized as the industry leader in fitness facility planning, design, supply and service.
In fact, the fitness solutions provider has been the leading commercial distribution partner for Precor - another fitness equipment manufacturer - for the past 10 years.
Announcing its new partnership with Star Trac, Bryan Green, President and founder of Advantage Fitness Products said, "We are thrilled to now present the most dynamic and comprehensive brand of products in the fitness industry to our valued clients. The depth, quality and innovation of Star Trac's product line have been designed exceptionally around the user experience, which naturally appeals to our high-end clientele."
For AFP, whose clientele includes some of the biggest names in the hospitality and education industry as well as giant corporate houses, the relationship with Star Trac opens an exciting new chapter.
