How many Batteries Plus Bulbs company-owned stores (CPS) were refranchised during 2022?

According to Batteries Plus Bulbs's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, during 2022, the company refranchised 5 company-owned stores (CPS). This means that Batteries Plus Bulbs sold the operating assets of these 5 corporate-owned stores to franchisees, and Batteries Plus Bulbs no longer operates these locations as company-owned stores.

For a prospective franchisee, this indicates that Batteries Plus Bulbs is willing to sell existing company-owned stores to franchisees. This could represent an opportunity to acquire an established Batteries Plus Bulbs location with an existing customer base and operating history, rather than starting a new store from the ground up.

However, it's important to note that the decision to refranchise a company-owned store is at the discretion of Batteries Plus Bulbs. A potential franchisee should inquire about the availability of refranchised stores and the criteria used to select franchisees for these opportunities.
