Profile by Sanford Opens 25th Store and Reaches 20,000 Members

National weight loss program opened 13 stores in the past year.

August 07, 2015 // Franchising.com // SIOUX FALLS, SD – Profile by Sanford, a comprehensive weight management program backed by one of the nation’s largest nonprofit health care providers, has expanded its national footprint to include 25 locations and 20,000 members, effectively doubling the amount of stores open while tripling the amount of active members over the past year.

“We are thrilled to see the growth over the past year nationwide but even more excited about the results that our members are seeing,” said COO Nate Malloy. “It is such a great accomplishment for not just the brand, but for the new and existing members who continue to become healthier every day.”

Designed by a team of physicians and researchers from Sanford Health, Profile by Sanford’s core business is focused around three areas: nutrition, activity and lifestyle. The rapidly-growing system utilizes more than 80 different meal-replacement products and nutritionally complete Profile-produced and grocery store foods, as well as qualified health coaches who develop customized plans for their clients and offer advice on nutrition, exercise and behavior.

In addition to face-to-face meetings, coaches are able to efficiently track members’ progress through the use of smart technology. Each member is equipped with wireless devices to measure improvement, including tools to track body weight, measurement and blood pressure. These devices automatically upload to a secure server, where members and coaches can monitor improvement on the web or mobile applications. Printed options are also available to members.

Profile continues to focus on program advancements through the launch of new food products, including three new pizza varieties. Profile is also on the cutting edge of technology to better assist members with measuring daily activity. Jawbone UP24 activity trackers are integrated with the Profile app to track members’ movement and sleep patterns, allowing for additional measurable data to be gathered.
