“ Chiefly specializing in bowling alleys in city centers , Lane7 is our biggest brand , catering to young professionals , corporate night outs and big occasions ,” begins Tim , as he introduces the company in more detail . “ Within Lane7 , we run two other brands . The first is Gutter Ball , which is a challenger brand to traditional bowling alleys , and then we have Level X , a multi-activity family entertainment center ( FEC ) venue . With about 50,000 square feet of space , Level X offers all sorts of activities , ranging from immersive gaming and bowling to indoor go-karting . We are actively growing each of these three brands at the moment .”
