Company Detail:
FeRRUM Athletic Company is a strength and longevity gym, the first of its kind in Jacksonville, helping people solve deeper problems through the education of health and movement. Andrea Werner started as a professional athlete and personal trainer. Together with her business partner, Cheri Mooney, she opened the gym in 2012 with the goal of helping people become healthier. Through their experiences with clients and themselves, the business has evolved into a fitness facility focusing on preventative health measures. The company collaborates with local medical professionals to provide the “exercise and nutrition” component necessary to help individuals live their healthiest lives for the rest of their lives.
Achievements
FeRRUM Athletic Company rebranded and built its own building simultaneously, essentially restarting the business. Over the past year, the company has connected with physical therapists, chiropractors, and medical doctors to serve as the next step their clients need to build strength and address metabolic issues like type II diabetes and poor lipid panels. The clientele has shifted from individuals focused on intense fitness to those seeking education, quality movement, and improved aging. During this time, the company successfully added fitness professionals who share its vision, providing them with full-time wages that allow them to live comfortably—a significant accomplishment in the fitness industry.
