Weight Loss and Wellness Franchise Coming to Metro Atlanta

The Atlanta area is getting several locations of the weight loss and wellness franchise Lindora .

Michael and Robin Hagerty are the team behind the upcoming locations, and they’re excited to bring the concept to the area they’ve called home for almost 14 years.

“I think this is an opportunity to be a real life changer,” Michael Hagerty told What Now Atlanta . “If you have a significant weight loss, for most people, it’s such a bump in their quality of life. That’s what I find so exciting, really changing people’s lives for the better.”

Lindora was founded in 1971 in Southern California and now has more than 30 locations. Services include medically guided weight management programs, weight loss medications, hormone replacement therapy, IV hydration and more.

“It’s a powerful suite of offerings to help somebody be successful in changing their lifestyles for the better,” Michael said.

Lindora offers comprehensive coaching and mentoring. They typically work with clients for about a year, working to truly change habits to help build a healthy lifestyle that lasts.

“I feel like it’s a great opportunity at the right time,” Michael said. “It’s really a comprehensive approach. We’re really excited.”

The Hagertys are eyeing six locations in the Atlanta area, with Buckhead, East Cobb, Brookhaven, Dunwoody, Sandy Springs, Vinings and Chamblee all as potential spots. They hope to have the first one open in about 10 months.

In addition to Atlanta, Lindora recently awarded multi-unit licenses in Dallas, Boise, Rochester, Buffalo, Chicago and Portland. Xponential Fitness , a global franchisor of health and wellness brands, recently acquired the company.
