It’s clear that the COVID-19 pandemic has caused severe changes in small businesses, franchises, and large corporations. 24 Hour Fitness Worldwide, Inc. has made the decision to permanently close 100 of its locations. The company recently laid off a large number of employees in various states but still struggled with the financial impact of gym closures due to the coronavirus pandemic. Prior to the large number of closures, 24 Hour Fitness had more than 400 gyms spread around to 14 states with about 22,000 employees.
