Business story

From one London bathhouse
to an operating platform.

Banya No.1 began in Hoxton in 2012, co-founded by Ksenia Bobkova and Andrei Fomin. Over time, the business expanded across different formats and operating relationships. BBanya represents Ksenia Bobkova’s next chapter: a wellness operating platform focused on improving and growing established businesses.

The next chapter

BBanya: operating expertise for wellness businesses.

Led by Ksenia Bobkova, BBanya’s stated focus is operational optimisation, hospitality technology and a full-cycle operating proposition. Future expansion and consolidation are strategic intentions, not completed transactions.

Historical milestones and proposed strategy are drawn from the September 2026 draft business storyline. Ownership, operating arrangements and current project status must be confirmed before publication.
