Nautilus Plus repositions itself for recovery
Founded in 1978, Nautilus Plus has always been a local company managed by a Quebec-based team. The company remains an innovating leader in its field and its strength is showcased by its vast network of university-educated health professionals, in kinesiology and nutrition, its safe and stimulating facilities and equipment, as well as by its extensive programs that meet the needs of all age groups, no matter the level of coaching required.
The COVID-19 crisis has profoundly impacted our company and the life of our employees. As you can imagine, the closure of all our facilities during the vast majority of the past 15 months has not been without consequences, particularly on the financial level. It is important to us to inform you that we are initiating talks with our business partners and creditors in order to continue pursuing our mission, which is to serve you. Through this settlement proposal, the current management team as well as a group of local investors, including Fondaction, will invest in Nautilus Plus. This will give us the means to respect all of our obligations towards our members, protect jobs and keep our headquarters in Quebec.
This temporary process will have no impact on our services and our obligations towards our members and our employees. The company’s activities will go on as usual.
Our company has the noble task of helping tens of thousands of Quebecers each year in improving and protecting their health, as we have done so for 42 years now. None of this will change. The deep relationships we have forged with our business partners and our members allow us to move forward with confidence and optimism.
In my name and on behalf of all our employees, I want to thank you for your confidence, your understanding and your loyalty over these difficult past few months. Our team is profoundly happy to see you again and is ready to continue serving you over the coming weeks and months. I am confident that our best days lie ahead.
Sincerely,
Martin Legaré
Chief Executive Officer

Temporary closure
Dearest members,
Following the press briefing on Tuesday April 6, 2021, we are unfortunately forced to temporarily close our centers located in the red zone as of Thursday April 8, 2021. This means that all our centers are affected by this temporary closure.
We are obviously very disappointed to have to temporarily close our doors again, but know that we will be there to support you during this time, as we have been for the last few months. Feel free to experience the online as well as our online consultation services as well as our Ultime Fit online training and nutrition platform to maintain shape and health. We added a new program recently!
For details regarding your membership, payments, appointments with your trainer and nutritionist, etc., please consult the COVID-19 Measures page.
Thank you again for your faithful collaboration and we hope to be able to find you quickly!
