At Batteries Plus, we pride ourselves on providing our franchisees with world-class support. That means offering resources in areas like operations, B2B sales, marketing and more, to help set our new owners up for success. It also means honoring our veteran franchisees by celebrating the dedication they bring to our brand each and every day.
Our annual Sales Achievement conference is an opportunity to recognize the achievements of our franchise family and celebrate their continued success. This year’s event was held in Las Vegas on June 14-15th, where we honored 70 franchise groups that represented a total of 76 stores.
