330+ Stores
Retail solution includes CounterPoint SQL software for all corporate and franchise stores

Hartland, WI - Radiant Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: RADS), a leading supplier of innovative technology to the retail and hospitality industries, announced that Batteries Plus, the largest battery retail chain in the United States with more than 330 locations, has selected Radiant to implement point of sale software and hardware for all of its sites. Batteries Plus will use Radiant’s P1520 retail point of sale terminals and CounterPoint SQL software with the aim of improving operational efficiencies and store profitability.

“As Batteries Plus continues to earn an increasing share of the retail and commercial battery market, partnering with a proven, established company such as Radiant Systems will be key to the success of the franchisees,” said Michael J. Lehman, chief information officer for Batteries Plus. “As our franchisee base continues to grow, Radiant’s CounterPoint software will help us run every Batteries Plus store more effectively because of its easy-to-use, powerful and flexible architecture. Radiant’s hardware is robust and built for long life, which is a great fit for the long-term profitability of our franchisees.”

CounterPoint SQL retail software includes inventory management, point of sale functions, purchasing, customer loyalty and sophisticated management-reporting capabilities. The hardware being deployed is built specifically for retailers and features touchscreen point of sale terminals with the industry’s lowest total cost of ownership. Batteries Plus has begun deployment of the Radiant solution in corporate stores, and the rollout across all franchisees will occur over the next three years.

“We are thrilled to partner with Batteries Plus to provide Radiant’s fully integrated retail POS solution and professional services,” said Chuck Moeling, vice president of sales and service for the Radiant retail division. “Radiant’s products will give Batteries Plus improved speed of customer service and sophisticated inventory control for store managers, which will enable more rapid and profitable growth of the Batteries Plus business model.”

Celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2008, Batteries Plus has set lofty development goals for the franchise system this year. To mark the milestone, the chain is “going back” to the 1980s with a $20,000 reduced franchise fee in certain markets – one thousand dollar savings for every year the chain has been in business.

“Technology is on a speed course of evolution and batteries are flying right along for support,” said Russ Reynolds, CEO of Batteries Plus. “As we enter our 20th year in business, we’re more motivated than ever to attract franchise partners who want to join us for the ride.”
