Ty Menzies, the former CEO of Lift Brands Asia Pacific, is now CEO of Lift Brands. According to the company, the executive will focus on helping each brand navigate business obstacles in the midst of COVID-19, and emphasize a “#OneTeam” approach.
“There has never been a better time for our #OneTeam mentality,” said Menzies, in a statement. “Our franchisees are weathering the COVID-19 storm and we continue to support them with a strong leadership team. We think that investing from within allows us to best support our franchise and we are excited to see what the future holds.”

In addition to these leadership changes, Lift Brands has also rolled out a partnership between Snap Fitness and FitnessOnDemand, which offers members free access to the virtual fitness platform.
Across its portfolio, Lift Brands boasts around 2,900 franchisees.
