Our franchise headquarters is located here, and we already have one very successful location,” said Alex Puccillo, P.volve director of franchise development. “Future potential franchisees in Chicago will have easy access to see the product in action before they buy in. We want rockstar franchisees, and in return, we’ll give them our complete attention to make sure they’re reaching their full potential.”
P.volve employs a hybrid model that includes a global on-demand digital platform with over 500 videos and an in-person, high-end studio experience focused on giving clients the chance to move with purpose. Studio members have access to their brick-and-mortar location as well as all of P.volve’s digital offerings.
Why Chicago P.volve Franchisees Will Have a Huge Advantage

“P.volve’s partnership with the Colliers real estate broker team based in Chicago will help develop nationwide franchise expansion plans,” said RJ Krone, P.volve vice president of studio and franchise operations. “Franchisees in Chicago will be at a great advantage with Colliers as a local resource, building on our already established online presence across the globe.”
With nearly 200,000 followers on Instagram, P.volve has caught the attention of celebrities like Sailor Brinkley Cook, Iskra Lawrence and Jill Stuart, as well as influencers like popular massage therapist Joe Yoon and the Culinary Doctor Lauren Powell.
Looking to turn its massive digital success into success on the ground, P.volve is aiming to hit 250 locations nationwide by 2026. “I need rockstar franchisees. They will have my full attention and I will make sure they succeed,” says Krone.
Not only offering franchisees the backing of leadership and industry experts, P.volve provides franchisees several different revenue streams, a variety of membership options that provide recurring revenue, as well as in-studio equipment and retail sales.
To date, more than 1 million users have signed up for P.volve workouts across 75 countries worldwide, and more than 300,000+ pieces of P.volve equipment have been sold.
P.volve is seeking positive people who prioritize health and wellness in their personal lives and are up-to-date with the latest wellness trends to start new franchise locations in Chicago. Potential franchisees should be fitness enthusiasts, entrepreneurs with a background in business management and leadership, or investors looking to capitalize on the boutique fitness boom.
