Batteries Plus Differentiators
The Batteries Plus brand name enjoys major recognition. We’re known in the industry as a tech franchise that keeps up with consumer trends and demands. Our franchisees can leverage our highly competitive and stable business model to offer a wide range of products and services that keep customers coming back.
- We specialize in more than just batteries. Since the marketplace is fragmented, many businesses are niche driven. Our franchisees can help customers keep their technology running smoothly, for anything they are looking to power, by providing products and services in a commercial or residential setting.
- We’re able to access a wide variety of products quickly. If the product isn’t available in-store, franchisees can source and deliver the product quickly thanks to our in-house distribution center. We’re dedicated to going above and beyond for customers.
- We provide a lifetime of support. We developed our time-tested business model to maximize efficiency and help franchisees see a stronger return on their investment. You can count on our team to keep you up to date and stay on top of the competition.
- We offer a world-class online training program. We make it easy for franchisees with little to no experience to master our proven system and access resources with our extensive online database.
