Retail Product Categories
CPR’s historical focus has been heavily weighted to the service side of the business. While cases, chargers, tempered glass and other phone accessories are a key part of every CPR location, we are focused on substantially growing our retail product offerings.We have conversion stores with >60% of revenue coming from device sales. We are focused on growing the following product categories:
a) Small battery sales - The battery lite program has been constructed to target high margin small batteries sales. Product consists of small batteries, common use batteries and specialty batteries for use in watches, garage door openers, car remotes, hearing aids, range finder’s (golf), specialty flashlights etc. Battery installations on watches, car remotes and garage door openers are quick and help boost the overall margins.
b) Pre owed device sales -Demand for used smartphones is growing rapidly. There isn’t an established leader (Brick & Mortar) in used smartphone sales in North America. CPR's new program features inventory floor planning, consumer financing and device warranties. This brings a significant opportunity to increase volume of customer visits to CPR franchise locations through warranty replacements that will lead to up selling on accessories, repair services, and more.
