From a single location with a big dream to a nationwide brand making waves in childhood swim education, Goldfish Swim School has reached an exciting new milestone: the grand opening of our 200th location!

This achievement isn’t just about numbers — it’s about impact, growth, and the incredible community of families, franchisees, and team members who have helped us get here.

From One Pool to 200 Swim Schools

Goldfish Swim School was founded with a simple but powerful mission: to teach children how to swim in a safe, fun, and confidence-building environment. Over the years, that mission has resonated with families across North America.

Today, with more than 200 locations open, Goldfish Swim School continues to be the leader in the children’s swim school franchise industry. Each new school represents:

  • A community of families gaining access to lifesaving skills
  • An entrepreneur achieving their dream of business ownership
  • A team of dedicated instructors helping kids build skills and confidence

Why 200 Matters for Franchise Growth

Reaching 200 grand openings is more than a milestone — it’s a sign of strength for prospective franchise owners, showcasing:

  • Proven Demand: Families nationwide are prioritizing swim lessons as an essential life skill.
  • Scalable Model: Franchisees are finding success in markets of all sizes, from suburbs to major metro areas.
  • Brand Trust: Parents recognize and trust the Goldfish Swim School name, helping new locations to launch.
  • Ongoing Support: Every new school benefits from decades of operational experience and a franchise support team committed to long-term success.

A Celebration of Community Impact

Every grand opening is also a community celebration. With each ribbon cutting, Goldfish Swim School brings new jobs, family-friendly programming, and a safe space where children can thrive.

Our 200th location represents hundreds of thousands of children who now have the opportunity to learn a skill that could one day save their lives. That impact is the heartbeat of everything we do.
