The Reason Batteries Plus is expanding in Fort Walton Beach Is not location.
The Reason is David Fuqua. David has taken a 3 tier location and built a business.
I was a customer of Batteries Plus way before I started working with them.
The service is what makes makes the difference. I can get a battery any place even off the internet. I go because of the
outstanding service. I have several stories of how they have helped me.
My first experience was I had bought an adaptor for a charger. It worked but the item didn’t. Batteries plus took it
back no questions asked.
My parents are in need of some assistance and so when the needed a battery for their Lexus I suggested Batteries
plus. They did not have the battery in stock and asked them to return the following day. The Battery did not arrive on
time. They then made service call to There home and installed the battery. The battery fail later, It was replaced no
questions asked. If you use someone for my parents I need to trust them other wise I have to fix it.
Second story. My Sister’s Step daughter -inlaw was in the hospital and her car was at my sisters home with a dead
battery. Called David ask what he could do. He was at the house and had the battery change within the hour.
Third story. I was getting my oil changed at my local mechanic a girl walked up saying her battery was dead. The
mechanic tested and confirmed. The wanted to call the local auto zone. I suggested Batteries Plus/David Fuqua. With
20 minutes the girl was on her way to work.
When They decided to relocate. David look at every available location. We drove every street. Check visibility,
signage, Traffic counts and proximity to other retailers. We investigated raw land and new building.
Fort Walton beach in older Florida town which is in transition. Within a mile and a half of this location. Up Town
Station and revitalized the once town shopping center pre mall. The have attracted Ross, Starbucks Five Guys Baskin
Robbins, ect. Eglin parkway is the main artery of Fort Walton Beach. The Location will prove to be better than we
even think.
