The Undefeated Tribe Ranks No. 73 on Inc. Magazine’s List of the Southwest Region’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies


Inc. Magazine today revealed that Austin-based Crunch Fitness Franchisee, The Undefeated Tribe is No. 73 on its fourth annual Inc. 5000 Regionals Southwest list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies based in Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas. Born of the annual Inc. 5000 franchise, this regional list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the Southwest economy’s most dynamic segment–its independent small businesses.

Undefeated Tribe CEO, Tony Hartl, oversees cultural excellence for their franchised Crunch locations in Texas, with plans to expand to 50 Crunch gyms over the next five years.

“Our purpose is to enrich the lives of others through the power of well-being,” said Hartl. “We are so humbled and honored to be able to deliver our mission across the communities we serve. Thank you to our members, partners, and team members that allow us to be part of their journey and have made this growth possible.”

The companies on this list show a remarkable rate of growth across all industries in the Southwest region. Between 2019 and 2021, these 165 private companies had an average growth rate of 557 percent and, in 2021 alone, they added 16,116 jobs and nearly $5.5 billion to the Southwest region’s economy. Companies based in the Austin, Texas, Scottsdale, Arizona, and Fort Worth, Texas, areas had the highest growth rates overall.
