Snap Fitness Club franchise in Virginia: what the public record shows
Franchisees of Snap Fitness Club in Virginia have taken 7 SBA loans since 1991 (average $188,385)— too few resolved loans in-state to publish a local failure rate (we require a resolved cohort, never extrapolate), so the brand's national rate of 11.4% is the better guide. Its latest FDD Item 20 state table reports 11 franchised outlets in Virginia (fiscal 2025) — about 0.12 per 100k residents.

Every business in Snap Fitness Club's industry operating in Virginia — franchised and independent — from the Census Bureau's County Business Patterns (2023), against 2024 population estimates. Counter-intuitively, density is not a warning: across 198 brand-state cells in our loan data, the densest quartile charges off at 5.6% versus 18.1% in the thinnest. A crowded market is usually proven demand; an empty one is often empty for a reason.
