Misspao, founded in May 2017, is a Chinese start-up developing fully-automated mini fitness rooms. As of now, it has made a presence in 1,000 Beijing communities and 500 Shanghai communities with 100 facilities.
Each fitness room is equipped with one treadmill, air cleaner, solar power supply system and Internet-connected TV for entertainment. Users can rent a mini-gymnasium via mobile app by paying 0.2 yuan per minute.
According to Misspao, each of its mini-gymnasiums cost RMB 10,000 yuan. Each mini-gym can be used five to six hours per day, which means it can return a profit in 10 months through each gymnasium.
