Niall Horan has invested in Gym+Coffee, becoming a shareholder with an aim to support the business and help raise the profile of the brand internationally.
Gym+Coffee launched in 2017 and has quickly become one of the fastest-growing businesses in Ireland and the United Kingdom.

Gym+Coffee CEO, Niall Horgan commented: “We are so excited for Niall to officially come on board and support a business like ours.
"Over the last 10 years, Niall has represented Ireland with optimism, inclusivity, energy, and positivity on a global stage and has become a household name across the world. He is what we aspire to become as a business. We hope that with his guidance and direction Gym+Coffee can emulate some of the success he’s had and proudly represent Ireland internationally.”
Investor and advisor Niall Horan commented, “I’ve been a fan of Gym+Coffee for some time both as a brand and a business. I love the idea of the community they created around the brand and their goals to 'Make Life Richer'.
"The first time I bought some Gym+Coffee gear I was struck by the high quality of the clothing and I was delighted to see they were an Irish brand with a serious team behind their operation. As I looked into it more, I started to understand their ambition and I’m delighted now to become part of the team that will hopefully bring the brand to a wider audience.”

Niall visited the new Gym+Coffee Westfield Clubhouse on the opening weekend saying, “I visited the first UK store in Westfield last year and hooked up with some of the founders. I was struck at how a young brand from Ireland was starting to make an impact on the international market. I realized there were some good synergies between us, and the relationship took off from there, ending with me investing in the company and becoming part of the team.”
A long-time friend of Niall Horan, British wildlife and entertainment photographer, Conor McDonnell joined a streamlined team to capture the launch of this partnership at Gym+Coffee’s Westfield London Clubhouse this year. Conor is a WWF Ambassador, Nikon Europe Ambassador, and was named in Forbes' 2016 30 Under 30 list.
