Top executives of Star Trac, including the new (Owner, Chairman and CEO), fitness manufacturing legend “Michael Bruno” along with his team, Rose Bravin (Managing Director Asia & Middle East) and Andy Richter (Vice President Key Accounts), were all in attendance to meet and greet Mr. Khammas and to celebrate the largest internal commercial territory agreement in the industry. AAHG has established a partnership with one of the worlds leading fitness manufacturers. Star Trac has always been known for their cutting edge innovation and use of technology in the commercial product line. In negotiations for nearly a year, the concluded agreement is in clear support of Star Trac’s endorsement of the Al Ahli Holding Groups growth in the industry and the aggressive nature of filling the need in the Global market space. Star Trac’s groundbreaking agreement expands with Al Ahli’s growing market presence in the fitness space via Gold’s Gym as it relates to their growth. The agreement is bound to direct sales within AAHG fitness properties in an expansive potential 106 countries. A ringing endorsement of the strength of Al Ahli as it pushes into new markets.

Al Ahli Holding Group, a multi-national company and a leader in the lifestyle and fitness arena in Pan Arabia, is on the move with the opening of three Gold’s Gym facilities in the next three to eleven months with many more to follow. With last years signing of Gold’s Gym’s largest master franchise deal slated for 26 gyms in major Arabian Peninsula markets and with further expansion to include the potential for an additional 62 gyms totaling 92 facilities over the next ten years, AAHG has risen to become the most serious player on the Pan Arabian and regional scene in fitness. This aggressive strategy makes them the largest single buyer of the world’s best fitness equipment brands. The strategy for the affiliations and relationships with the world’s best manufacturers was spawned by the quest for providing the best fitness experience with the best technology at the best price to both the AAHG/Gold’s Gym user client and the sub franchisee development partner.

AAHG continuously listens to the market and to their customer base; Mr. Khammas stated, “Our strive in providing excellence in the fitness space is driven by complete satisfaction and results for our clients. We allow our client base to continuously rate the products of the big five manufacturers and they decide the ranking and the direction of our purchases. What better place to announce this exciting set of partnerships then the world’s greatest fitness forum; IHRSA’s 30th anniversary show.”
