Battery road rescue service Dial-A-Battery is powering up its business in Dubai.
Dial-A-Battery is a new service where customers can call a toll-free number and have their vehicle battery replaced wherever they have run out of juice.
The service will expand into a 24/7 service in the Dubai early in 2012, rolling out in Abu Dhabi and other Emirates followed by quick expansion into surrounding GCC countries throughout 2012.
A-MAP, one of the UAE’s biggest distributors of automotive batteries has been selected as one of its suppliers. Managing director Asad Badami said the service should be able to ease “battery replacement trauma”.
“Dubai residents don’t have time or interest in being subjected to ‘battery replacement trauma’ with all its related hassle and headache. They only want to be rescued,” said Badami. “Due to excessive heat in the UAE and across the Gulf countries a vehicles battery life is significantly reduced, creating a strong demand for immediate battery replacement in this region.”
