About this job

Part Time Sales Associate (Rochester, NY)

DESCRIPTION

Batteries Plus 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. Since then we have added cell phone and tablet repair to our offerings.

We have over 750 locations in 46 states and Puerto Rico. With access to more than 40,000 types of batteries, and over 10,000 kinds of light bulbs and accessories, Batteries Plus has the widest selection of battery and light bulb products available and offers unmatched service to consumers, businesses and government entities at the national and local levels.
