The Swissnet Group has entered into a long-term framework agreement with fitness chain EVO Fitness to serve as its strategic rollout and network infrastructure partner. This partnership follows a structured provider selection process conducted by Berlin-based consulting firm scoreready. Swissnet will modernize existing infrastructure and provide redundant connectivity for all existing and future EVO Fitness studios throughout Germany.
For 2026, the project includes modernizing IT infrastructure in 13 existing fitness studios while supporting the opening of 10 additional clubs. EVO Fitness plans continued expansion with approximately 10 new studios per year at attractive locations across Germany. The rollout of new technical infrastructure has already commenced, with all studios receiving standardized, state-of-the-art network architecture including customer Wi-Fi that enables operation of innovative fitness equipment, digital access controls, video surveillance, and digital signage solutions.
Each studio site will be connected redundantly to ensure maximum reliability, with Swissnet providing both primary internet lines and additional 5G backup solutions. A central component of the collaboration is the delivery of all services as a managed service, which reduces initial project costs while ensuring reliable operations through centralized monitoring and continuous service support. This approach underscores the long-term partnership between the companies.
Further joint projects are already being planned, including a standardized, centralized video surveillance solution with enhanced analytics functionalities to optimize operations and customer experience. Felix Leupert, VP Sales DACH at Swissnet Group, stated that the company is supporting a fast-growing fitness concept as a technology partner and creating the digital foundation for scalable expansion and innovative studio experiences.
The Swissnet Group serves customers across multiple sectors including retail, hospitality, healthcare, and the public sector with intelligent, fully cloud-based technologies that support omnichannel strategies.
