Battery World franchisee, Poonam Yadav, loves the brand so much she has just bought her third store in Queensland.

Poonam has added the Rothwell outlet to her two existing Battery World stores in Morayfield and Indooroopilly. She’s a big advocate for the brand’s role in the community.

“I have been a part of the Morayfield community for many years, and our store has been servicing locals for a long time, and during this time I realised the untapped potential of Battery World and our services to help those within the surrounding areas too,” she explains. 

“Over the past few months, we’ve had an influx of customers wanting to support and buy local, and in building more personal relationships with our customers realised the increasing demand for our services. 

“Battery World’s vast range of battery solutions has set up us for success acquiring a store close to the water. This allows us to focus on marine battery solutions and to offer our wide range of services; everything from roadside assistance, to our product knowledge, to more customers within the territory. 

“We are excited to tackle this new challenge and broaden our ability to deliver sustainable, high-quality Aussie-made battery solutions and expert advice to those who need it, when they need it.”  

Battery World’s new general manager Johnny Kennedy says the network’s confidence in the Battery World brand is encouraging. 

“Through times of uncertainty, it’s exciting to see our local stores backing our brand,” Johnny says.  

“Poonam and her team are a prime example of the quality customer service and product expertise we deliver day in, day out and I am excited to see her take the Rothwell store to new heights.” 

Johnny Kennedy joined the battery retail and service chain in August 2020, bringing years of experience in the battery sector to his leadership role.
