Gym equipment specialist Jigsaw Fitness will look to roll out its Solo Fitness home gym equipment brand after securing a new cash injection.
Crosby-based Jigsaw has received £350,000 in debt funding from NatWest. Jigsaw designs and manufactures custom gym equipment for fitness studios and individuals worldwide.
Clients include BXR, Fairmont Hotels, Under Armour, Fitness First, Gymshark, and Everlast. It was founded by Sam Marsh who also has a premium home fitness brand called Solo Fitness which designs and equips luxury home gyms.
Solo Fitness was set up around the time of the Covid pandemic in an attempt to bring well-designed home fitness equipment to the market.
Funding from NatWest, which includes trade loan facilities, will support Jigsaw Fitness as it continues to develop the Solo Fitness range, expanding the brand’s presence in the UK and around the world.
“Over the last few years, we have invested in bringing new products to market for a segment that was previously underserved,” said Sam.
“We have carefully crafted a range of Solo Fitness products that we believe to be one of the finest on the market. Armed with these, we look forward to growing the brand with new clients in the UK and abroad.

Nathan added: “Sam has a clear vision for the business, and we’re delighted to support his plans for growth. We’re looking forward to seeing what he and his team do in future, and will continue supporting them on their journey.”
