Case information:
Globo Gym Services Pty Ltd is a provider of maintenance services for
commercial gym equipment. Gyms throughout Australia engage Globo
Gym Services to maintain their gym equipment. As a company specialising
in gym equipment maintenance, Globo Gym is able to provide clients with
efficient and timely repairs, more cost efficiently than gyms could
otherwise undertake through employing their own staff.
The COVID-19 pandemic has hit gyms particularly hard, with lock downs
forcing gym closures across different states in Australia. For Globo Gym
Service, this has meant that clients have cut back requesting equipment
maintenance and reduced system maintenance requests as much as
possible. Many clients are experiencing great financial difficulty and have
delayed paying amounts owed to Globo Gym Services.
