Banner Charge Their Glasses In Celebration Of Spartan’s Awards

Hat Trick

Banner Batteries – one of the UK’s leading battery supplies - helped keep the

celebrations flowing at rapidly expanding South Wales-Based Spartan Motor

Factors recently, and it was all in support of the company’s success in winning

a major industry accolade for the third year running – CAT (Car & Accessory

Trader) magazine’s coveted Small Factor of the Year Award. No mean feat for

a company that has only been in business for the same length of time.

And whilst Banner Batteries presented directors, Jason Farrugia, Daniel Webb

and Lee Gratton each with a bottle of champagne, it also proved an

opportunity to toast the progress of the relationship that has evolved

between both companies since Banner Batteries was appointed by Spartan

Motor Factors as its preferred battery supplier in August of last year.

Furthermore, it coincides with the opening of the company’s fourth and latest

branch in Barry.

Today, Banner Batteries’ flagship Power Bull battery – a high quality product

that is fitted as original equipment by car manufactures such as VW, BMW

and Skoda – and the company’s premium Red Power branded product can be

seen across the motor factors existing branches located in Newport, Cardiff

and Bridgend.

As Spartan Motor Factors director, Jason Farrugia commented: “Despite

having only kick-started our relationship with Banner Batteries last August, the

uptake of the product from across our customer base has proved very

successful. As one of the largest battery manufacturers in Europe, they are an

extremely well respected brand and renowned for supplying only high quality

products. As such, we have experienced very few warranty issues. Indeed it is

only through our association with leading aftermarket brands such as Banner,

not to mention the support we receive from buying group, Parts Distribution

Partnership, that has helped us secure the CAT award for a third year

running.”

Established in 2012, Spartan Motor Factors today employs a staff of 30.

Operating a 15-strong van fleet, Spartan is the fastest growing vehicle parts

supplier in South Wales.
