The Pitch

Lucky Punch was founded in 2020 by Chris Velkovski and Daniel Dmitriouk with one mission in mind: to empower people worldwide to become everyday heroes. Back when it was a bootstrapped business in the early stages of development, Lucky Punch overcame countless challenges and a worldwide pandemic to now become one of the fastest growing fitness boxing studios in the world:

  • Over 10'000 community members
  • 73% average Class Occupancy Rate
  • 5000 monthly attendees
  • +450 recurring memberships

Invest in a Swiss brand going international

With a Flagship Studio in Zurich and Dubai, a second location in Zurich opening 2025, and successful pop ups in Berlin and Copenhagen, Lucky Punch is on a path to international expansion to some of the world’s prime hotspots. Lucky Punch is growing at a rate that exceeds industry expectations, with year-to-date growth of 32% as of August 2024. The minimum investment in public sale starts at CHF 794.16.

The importance of growth financing 

To build on the momentum we've gained and explore new opportunities, we are seeking growth financing. While the current funding has helped us to achieve key milestones and expand to Berlin and Dubai, continued growth requires a larger dedicated team to fuel the demand with the national and international expansion. Additionally we organize events and Fitness Music Festivals in prime locations for the community. 

Your investment will directly support this growth, enabling Lucky Punch to open new studios, strengthen our offerings and increase the community engagement. Our goal is to establish 11 flagship locations and sell 50 franchise locations by 2029.

Participate in long term success

The global health and fitness club market continues to grow, projected to increase from USD 91.18 billion in 2021 to USD 169.7 billion in 2030, at an average annual growth rate of 7.67%. This growth is driven by a megatrend of people adopting healthier lifestyles, resulting in more frequent exercise. Boutique gyms and group classes are experiencing the highest growth rates within the market. While the US, Australia, and New Zealand markets are already saturated with venture capital investment, Europe and the Middle East remain largely untapped, presenting an ideal opportunity for Lucky Punch.

Additionally, our proof-of-concept is validated by the successful opening of Zurich and the anticipated launch of Zurich 2.0 and Dubai. 

By buying Lucky Punch shares you can invest in a Swiss brand going international. As a co-owner, you benefit from the growth of your favorite brand in international hotspots like Dubai and Berlin. If you are already one of our customers, the Lucky Punch Studio is now your «Home Gym» because every purchase serves to increase the value of your Lucky Punch share. 

Thanks to our continued growth, global expansion plans, community leverage, and Lucky Punch's exit strategy, now is the prime time to invest.
