Renowned ACDelco Batteries Now Distributed by R&J Batteries

ACDelco, a global leader with a strong heritage in the automotive aftermarket industry, has appointed R&J Batteries to distribute their range of high quality and reliable automotive batteries. R&J Batteries is now the exclusive distributor of ACDelco batteries in New Zealand.

Speaking about the new exclusive distribution rights, ACDelco Product Development Manager at R&J Batteries, Matthew Everett, said, “R&J Batteries is extremely excited to have been chosen to distribute the ACDelco battery brand in New Zealand. The ACDelco brand has strong ties in the New Zealand marketplace and has a long association with the General Motors brand and its dealers.”

R&J Batteries’ association with ACDelco is not new. In fact, R&J Batteries has been distributing ACDelco batteries throughout Australia for 18 years through company-owned branches and stockists prior to expanding its distribution footprint in New Zealand. Matthew Everett who has been working with ACDelco closely over the years said, “R&J Batteries has a long-standing partnership with ACDelco in Australia and has grown from strength to strength. To now be the national distributor for ACDelco Batteries in New Zealand makes that relationship even stronger and creates great opportunities for continued sustained growth.”

ACDelco is a brand that needs no introduction. Its backing by General Motors further strengthens the brand and reinforces its range of quality products. Having ACDelco Batteries widely distributed in New Zealand by R&J Batteries which has over 26 years of experience in the battery industry is the beginning of another powerful association. Speaking about its relationship with R&J Batteries, Stephen Matthews, General Manager (Aftersales) at General Motors New Zealand said, “General Motors New Zealand is very excited to partner with R&J Batteries. As we look to develop the ACDelco battery business in New Zealand supported by our existing Holden and Isuzu Truck Dealer Network, we see opportunities to grow the brand across the automotive sector, supporting customers with a quality product. We look forward to developing the relationship that will not only grow the business but secure our business for the future.”

The current range of ACDelco batteries consists of various sizes to suit a wide spectrum of applications in categories such as Automotive, Commercial, High Cycle Marine, Marine Starting, Garden and Lawn covering all business, residential and recreational battery needs. All ACDelco batteries are laboratory-tested, field-proven and have undergone numerous quality control checks prior to being available in the market. The strong warranty coverage on all ACDelco batteries is another testament to its quality and performance capabilities.
