US-based franchisor Massage Heights has revealed expansion plans that will bring its total number of locations to 300 by 2020.

The company had a record-breaking year in 2017, earning more than US$100m (£71.2m, €80.9m), and opening 14 locations across the US.

As part of its growth strategy, Massage Heights is targeting franchise development in Chicago, Nashville, South Florida, Las Vegas, Dallas and St Louis, and is recruiting single- and multi-unit franchisees.

Shane Evans, co-founder and president of Massage Heights, said: “The spa industry continues to report strong growth, with total revenue in the industry hitting US$16.8bn and spa visits rising to 184 million.”
