24 Hour Fitness files for bankruptcy, closes 18 gyms across Southern California
24 Hour Fitness, which is based in San Ramon, says it hopes to reopen the majority of its locations by the end of June.
Despite the fact that California lifted some coronavirus restrictions and gave gyms and fitness centers the green light to reopen, the 24 Hour Fitness gym chain announced that nearly 20 Southern California locations will not be reopening.
24 Hour Fitness announced Monday it has filed for bankruptcy after the gym chain closed 18 of its Southern California locations.
On its website, the company said it made the difficult decision to close locations in several states, 18 of them across the Southland. The company has closed 100 locations in the U.S.
"If it were not for COVID-19 and its devastating effects, we would not be filing for Chapter 11," said Chief Executive Officer Tony Ueber in a statement on Monday.
24 Hour Fitness, which is based in San Ramon, says it hopes to reopen the majority of its locations by the end of June.
