A Tried & Tested System With Future Potential growth!
Through trial and error, Battery Clinic perfected all their systems that enabled Battery Clinic to re-condition a battery that was equal in power, but more than half the price of a new battery. However, Battery Clinic listened to the markets they serviced and soon they added new batteries to their offering. This gave their customers a choice between a new or re-conditioned battery. Needless to say, in today’s tight financial economy, re-conditioned batteries are in great demand.
After a few years Battery Clinic demand in selling both re-conditioned and new batteries was at such a high level that it was time to move to the next level. Steve Huysamen wanted to share his success with other potential business owners in SA. Steve then approached Franchising Plus, the leading franchise consultants, to assist him in developing a successful franchise model. Battery Clinic, formally known as Steve’s Battery Clinic, was born.
Today we are proud to say that there are eleven successful operating outlets. Battery Clinic’s vision is to become the largest battery retail outlet in the South African market.

Steve's Story
Steve’s Battery Clinic started in 2006 when the founder, Steve Huysamen, was looking to start a business and could not think of any viable business that could provide a sustainable income and a long term future for him. He realised that there was a great demand in the battery business in South Africa and saw the gap in the market. Car sales were increasing dramatically and the automotive industry was doing very well.
Steve Huysamen bought into a small battery re-conditioning business that was still in the very early stages and not perfect at that time. He started his first outlet from home, in an effort to try and keep his monthly expenses as low as possible. Steve soon realised that his business was growing fast and needed to expand to bigger premises. In 2007, the company moved into their first business premises and within the next three months the demand for re-conditioned batteries increased substantially. Steve had to start looking for bigger and better machines to handle this demand. This was the beginning of Battery Clinic’s expansion.
Steve searched the globe to find the charger that was suitable for this big task on hand, and crossed paths with an electronic engineer that was up for the task to build this monster machine. This charger, with its unique secrets and expertise, re-conditioned more batteries in less time than any other in this mark.
Our Business Model
Battery Clinic offers customers a choice between a NEW (Powerforce and Sparky Extreme) or Re-conditioned battery (ReNew). Both Powerforce and Sparky Extreme are our own “House Labels” that have been developed with large national and international battery manufacturers.

Battery Clinic Randfontein & Tambotie
office as well as all other stakeholders involved has always been high on our priority list as we feel that it is one of the main ingredient for success. We had our sights set on gaining the trust from customers, suppliers, employees and the community and we achieved a great sense of brand and customer loyalty as a result. In 2017 we made the decision to open another branch in Randfontein as there was a certain market segment that we did not reach. We were in the fortunate position that the segment that we did not reach started to support us because of our brand that has been in Randfontein since 2006. Convenience is key and the shopping experience is pleasant for all our customers. In our experience we have found that the need for a battery specialist is greater than ever and customers choose to support us as a result. Great product knowledge and expert advice seem to resonate with people in need of a battery and this is what made our business a success over the years. The brand, service, empathy with clients as well as going the extra mile from time to time will lead to success. After all, there will always be a market for batteries and the organisation that offers the best service and prices will always be the one making the sale.
