About
Eric Casaburi’s entrepreneurial spirit and love of fitness have flourished since the age of thirteen, beginning with his first job at a local gym. Possessing the courage, energy and fearlessness to fuel a small army, Casaburi opened his first business at the age of 23 and launched his first franchise, Retro Fitness in 2004. He has since grown his passion for health and well-being into a $150,000,000 a year business giant. There are currently over one hundred and fifty Retro Fitness clubs serving over 500,000 members across seventeen states, and another one hundred and fifty are in the pipeline.
The Retro Fitness philosophy “More fitness, less money,” has made Casaburi one of the most successful entrepreneurs in recent history. In a market that is saturated with competition, Casaburi manages to stay ahead of the curve by implementing strategic business tactics such as exceptional customer service, a keen attention to cleanliness, as well as constantly evolving the brand to keep up with the times.
Casaburi has been featured on CNBC, MSNBC, Fox Business, Bloomberg TV, and the CBS series Undercover Boss in 2 separate episodes. He has appeared in dozens of publications such as Forbes,
livingmedia.com, Entrepreneur Magazine, Wall Street Journal, and Franchise Times. Casaburi now lives with his wife and their four children in Florida. His interests include physical activities, sports-specifically anything involving the Philadelphia Eagles, learning how to empower others, and spending his free time with his family.
Eric is a proven leader in the fitness industry and hopes to inspire others to achieve their dreams and reach the pinnacle of success. “As an entrepreneur, I think one of the biggest things most guys or gals will fight with is their ability to let go,” Casaburi says.
