From inventory to order management, YoRent transformed the entire business model of a fitness equipment giant.

About BigFitness

Big Fitness has been in the fitness equipment industry since 1991. It deals in the sale and purchase of both new and used fitness equipment. With more than 3 decades of experience in the industry, Big Fitness has a vast network of suppliers through whom it provides safe and reliable fitness equipment to fitness enthusiasts, schools, hotels, gyms and other organizations.

The Challenge

During the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous gymnasiums ran out of business and closed. To help gyms survive the economic downturn, Big Fitness purchased their equipment and listed them on an online form. However, the form’s capabilities were pretty much limited. To generate business, Big Fitness had to manually take orders, manage shipping and payments. The end result was an inefficient workflow that instead of simplifying operations, made them arduous and heavily cost-inclusive.

How YoRent Helped?

YoRent helped Big Fitness undergo a complete digital transformation with a customized solution. The solution automated inventory, sales, order management, payments and other key areas for Big Fitness. Furthermore, YoRent appropriately resolved customer pain points with a user-friendly design and multi-vendor support. With the help of YoRent, Big Fitness can now successfully connect fitness equipment owners with buyers and provide complete sourcing solutions.
