A FITNESS equipment provider will open its new headquarters in Clyde Gateway.

Powerhouse Fitness will operate out of Rutherglen Links Business Park.

The 6,145 sq ft facility, Three Rutherglen Links, was constructed during 2020 and has been sold to First Grau UK Real Estate Ltd, trading as Powerhouse Fitness.

Three Rutherglen Links will become Powerhouse Fitness’ new headquarters when their 35 employee-strong team moves into the building in October.

The fitness equipment supplier was founded in Glasgow in 1980 and has grown to operate in nine stores across the UK, in addition to another 57 stores across eight countries as part of the Sport-Tiedje group, Europe’s largest home fitness retailer.

Clyde Gateway’s chief executive Ian Manson said: “Rutherglen Links Business Park continues to be an attractive option for businesses to locate and expand. The arrival of Powerhouse Fitness into our latest commercial space is further proof that the office market in Clyde Gateway is weathering the pandemic and augurs well for our pipeline of advance office and industrial developments.

“We look forward to welcoming Powerhouse Fitness to Clyde Gateway and wish them every success as they embark on such an exciting period for the business.”

We are investing heavily in our infrastructure, and are delighted to keep our home in Glasgow following our head office relocation. Following our move, we are already recruiting locally for skilled positions in our team and we look forward to becoming part of the Clyde Gateway community.

“The Park will give us excellent services and utility provisions, as part of a site that has excellent green and sustainability credentials.”
