Gym Equipment to 2x Gyms - Broxtowe Borough Council

Notice Description

Broxtowe Borough Council is seeking an experienced supplier to design, supply, and install high-quality gym equipment across two leisure centres within the Broxtowe district. The scope includes providing a comprehensive range of cardio and resistance equipment, optimised to maximise the functionality and efficiency of the available floor space in each location. One of the leisure centres is already operational, while the second is currently under construction.

This includes contributing to design discussions to help shape a modern, high-performance fitness environment tailored to community needs. In the existing facility, the design will be required to maximise the gym-users journey while working within the constraints of the existing site.
