Batteries Plus Expands Texas Footprint with Five New Franchise Locations
Batteries Plus has signed a new five-unit franchise agreement with experienced operators to open three stores in Houston and two in Northeast Dallas, strengthening the brand's commercial power solutions network in essential Texas industries.
Batteries Plus, the nation's leading battery and power solutions service center, has signed a new franchise agreement with a Texas-based team of experienced operators to expand its presence in two major metropolitan areas. Partners Brad Rodman, Ryan Galvez, and Troy Kyle are set to open three stores in the Houston area and two stores in the Northeast Dallas area, building upon the brand's existing 29 stores in Texas.
The new partnership brings together three entrepreneurs with diverse franchise and business backgrounds. Galvez previously oversaw nine optical franchise locations and worked as a project manager in the chemical engineering sector. Rodman is a veteran multi-unit owner with extensive franchise experience in optical, food, and restaurant spaces, including Nothing Bundt Cakes and Blaze Pizza. Kyle brings two decades of experience leading outside sales and operating multiple companies in Texas.
"Our backgrounds in franchising and operational leadership have taught us that success depends on teamwork, versatility, and a willingness to handle both strategy and hands-on work," said Galvez. "We get stuff done, and Batteries Plus gives us the support and flexibility to master every part of the business. Batteries Plus is built for long-term growth, and our goal is to maximize the potential of each location we open."
The expansion will generate significant economic impact for local communities, with each new location employing four-to-six team members and creating over 30 new jobs across both markets. Beyond employment opportunities, the stores will provide residents with a local hub for device repairs, key fob replacements, lighting upgrades, and customized energy solutions backed by Batteries Plus's industry expertise and nationwide network.
The strategic importance of this expansion lies in strengthening Batteries Plus's commercial service network across critical Texas industries. The new locations will help power Texas fleets, hospitals, first responders, schools, and data centers that depend on mission-critical energy infrastructure daily. These facilities will feature expanded commercial services vital for Texas industries requiring rapid, reliable power solutions.
"With these three talented operators joining our system, we are reinforcing our ability to serve essential businesses and communities where reliability is non-negotiable," said Joe Malmuth, Chief Development Officer for Batteries Plus. "Their entrepreneurial spirit, franchise experience, and connection to key markets across Texas make them the ideal partners as we accelerate commercial sales and local service."
The expansion reflects Batteries Plus's broader strategy to meet growing demand for power solutions in commercial and institutional sectors nationwide. With more than 250 local franchise owners and B2B power experts across the country, the company's business model is designed for long-term growth in markets where reliable power infrastructure is essential.
