COTTAGE GROVE, WI – Matrix Fitness, one of the world’s fastest growing commercial fitness brands, was awarded the 2020 Gold’s Gym Equipment Vendor of the Year at the recent Gold’s Gym Global Convention on July 19 – 21, 2021, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Nearly 700 franchisees and 61 company-owned gyms ranked vendors in areas such as customer satisfaction, likelihood of referral and overall product quality. This year marks the sixth time the brand has been chosen for the prestigious award in the equipment category in the past 12 years. Other vendor winners included Home Depot Pro for the non-equipment category and ABC Fitness Solutions for the service category.
“We are thankful for such great vendors. Matrix has an outstanding portfolio, and we and our franchise partners love their quality and service,” said Jörg Fockenberg, Gold’s Gym Chief Development Officer.
“We are extremely grateful to be honored by Gold’s Gym International and the RSG Group as Equipment Vendor of the Year once again,” said Kent Stevens, Matrix Executive Vice President of Sales. “It’s been such a pleasure to observe Gold’s Gym’s perseverance after a turbulent year and their steadfast commitment to providing a safe and inclusive fitness experience at all locations. Their globally recognized legacy continues to inspire us as we proudly serve the fitness industry.”
This year’s annual gathering was the first live convention after Gold’s Gym International was acquired by the German fitness company RSG Group in July 2020. Over 300 attendees gathered at the Red Rock Casino and Spa in Las Vegas for the three-day convention where they honored their iconic legacy as a world leader in strength and performance and set the stage for a whole new “golden era” for Gold’s Gym.
Seth Robinson, Matrix Fitness Strategic Account Manager for Gold’s Gym, adds, “Thank you to the Gold’s Gym family for awarding us this respected accolade. Having the opportunity to cultivate partnerships within the Gold’s family is the true honor.”
