January 10, 2022 // Franchising.com // CHICAGO – Today, A Better Weigh, Inc., a Chicago-based weight loss center announced its plans to franchise. Since its founding in 2009, the center has provided faster, safer and longer-lasting weight loss results using FDA-approved medications, lipotropic formulas and proprietary supplements and attracted over 20,000 customers to its four locations. With the global weight loss industry projected to increase from $254.9 billion in 2021 to $377.3 billion by 2026 (Research and Markets, 2020), the woman-owned company hopes to capitalize on consumer demand by bringing its unique approach of customized medically-assisted weight loss and weight management programs to potential business owners.
Founded by Chanay Walton, LPN after her own struggles with postpartum weight loss and through her work as a nurse, Chanay realized the importance of diet, nutrition and weight management, which led her to open the first A Better Weigh location in the Beverly neighborhood of Chicago in 2009. Since then, she has expanded to one additional corporate location in the Edgewater neighborhood of Chicago and two franchise locations in Tinley Park, Illinois and Schererville, Indiana.
A Better Weigh’s approach to weight loss and management is informed by a team of physicians, nutritionists and coaches to provide a true 360 degree comprehensive solution. Most programs include a guided meal plan, proprietary supplements, proprietary injections to stimulate metabolism and increase fat burning processes, and consistent appointments and consultations with the A Better Weigh care team. Unique to A Better Weigh, each location offers FDA-approved medications, supplements, Lipo-Ignite injections and focuses on healthy BMIs when working with patients.
