Interactive Strength Inc. (Nasdaq: TRNR) Secures Exclusive Distribution for CLMBR in Fast-Growing Gulf Region With MEFITPRO and Receives Six-Figure Initial Order

  • MEFITPRO, based in Dubai, is the leading distributor of best-in-class brands in the Gulf region and will represent CLMBR exclusively

  • Gulf countries (the "GCC") are growing quickly and fitness adoption is outpacing GDP growth

  • MEFITPRO placed six-figure initial order that is expected to ship in the third quarter

AUSTIN, TX / ACCESSWIRE / July 9, 2024 / Interactive Strength Inc. (NASDAQ:TRNR) ("TRNR" or "the Company"), maker of innovative specialty fitness equipment under the CLMBR and FORME brands, today announced that, it has secured exclusive distribution and a six-figure initial order for CLMBR in the fast-growing Gulf region with MEFITPRO, the leading distributor of best-in-class brands in the region.

Greg Boucher, Chief Executive Officer of MEFITPRO, said: "We are proud to distribute best-in-class brands across the Gulf countries and we are excited about the potential for CLMBR in the region. We experienced CLMBR at IHRSA earlier this year and knew we wanted to bring CLMBR to the GCC, but then we participated in a group fitness class at Crunch Fitness West Hollywood and knew that our customers were going to love CLMBR. CLMBR is such a great addition to the MEFITPRO brand portfolio given its versatility as we see clubs creating group fitness offerings and also putting CLMBRs on the gym floor to provide a great, low-impact alternative to other forms of training."

Trent Ward, Co-Founder and CEO of TRNR, said: "The GCC countries are a huge growth opportunity for CLMBR due to the long-term GDP growth outlook and the increasing penetration of fitness in those countries. The countries are young and affluent, and are among the fastest developing markets in the world. MEFITPRO is the leader in the region and have done a great job for other brands such as TRX, Woodway, Fitbench and Wattbike, and we are excited to partner with them."

"We are expecting to sell to at least ten international distributors or key accounts this year," Mr. Ward continued, "and we believe the international sales opportunity will be similar in size to the opportunity in the US. We expect to receive the required certifications to sell to Europe in the third quarter and that certification will allow distributors to fulfill the demand indications we received at IHRSA and FIBO earlier this year. After the US, the UK, Germany, France and Spain are some of the biggest fitness markets in the world and we believe we have potential customers eager to order CLMBRs for their market."

Gym chains are adding CLMBRs to the cardio floor and are often replacing elliptical machines to make room for the new equipment. Climbing is an efficient and effective full-body strength and cardio workout, and one that can result in greater posterior chain activation than other equipment.

Additionally, some gym chains have started to pilot group fitness solutions where 10 or 15 CLMBRs are grouped together in a room previously used for spin classes. The initial feedback has been very positive in these instances, and it mimics the same feedback that customers of Studio CLMBR in Denver have had for years about the class being both fun and an incredible workout.
