We sell batteries and bulbs.
Batteries Plus, now Batteries Plus Bulbs, was the first organization to respond to the evolving needs of the replacement battery market. Our first store opened in 1988 in Green Bay, Wisconsin. We began franchising in 1992 and opened our first franchise-owned store in Fort Wayne, IN. The increasing demand for “specialty” and replacement batteries, combined with our reputation for solving battery problems, has led to our rapid success and expansion. In 2010, we refined the model of the all-battery franchise concept by adding light bulbs to our product line.
We are now the nation’s largest, fastest-growing battery and light bulb franchise. Named by Franchise Business Review in its Top 50 list of franchisors with the highest overall franchisee satisfaction in 2012, and ranked as the #1 Retail Battery Franchise by Entrepreneur Magazine and AllBusiness.com, we have over 600 locations in 47 states and Puerto Rico. With access to more than 45,000 types of batteries, light bulbs and accessories, we have the widest selection of battery and light bulb products available, and offer unmatched service to consumers, businesses and government entities at the national and local levels. We continue to reign as the undisputed leader in the expanding $30.7 billion U.S. battery replacement market and the growing $17 billion U.S. light bulb replacement market.* *Freedonia Research Study.
