A new Batteries Plus Amarillo store is planned along I-40 West, giving the established local retailer a standalone building designed for its business. The project at 3301 I-40 West calls for a new retail facility built from the ground up.
For customers, the brand is associated with practical errands: replacing a tired car battery, finding a specialty battery or getting help with a device. Now, a new building adds a construction chapter to its existing presence in Amarillo.
Batteries Plus Amarillo Plans a Standalone Store
Plans call for a 3,360-square-foot pre-engineered metal retail building with associated site work. In other words, the project involves a new structure for Batteries Plus, rather than an interior remodel of an existing storefront.
That distinction is the local story. A purpose-built store represents a fresh investment in the retailer’s physical space along I-40 West. However, the available records do not establish how that building will affect the company’s current Amarillo operation.
According to the company’s official store directory, Batteries Plus already operates at 3300 S. Coulter Street, Suite 1. The new project therefore is not the brand’s first Amarillo location. Whether it will replace the Coulter Street store or operate alongside it remains unconfirmed.
More Than the Batteries in the Name
Batteries Plus is a specialty retailer with hundreds of stores nationwide. Its offerings span automotive and specialty batteries, lighting, key services, device repair and related products.
For example, a customer might arrive looking for a vehicle battery and discover help with a key fob or a phone repair. The wider assortment also includes batteries for equipment and devices that do not use an ordinary pack of AAs.
That mix gives the Batteries Plus Amarillo project relevance beyond one product category. The brand serves customers looking for replacements and repair options for things they already own, as well as new products.
A Practical Stop for Everyday Problems
A failed battery or a broken device can interrupt the day quickly. As a result, a specialty store’s appeal often comes down to finding the right replacement or asking someone about compatibility.
Meanwhile, lighting adds another reason to browse. The representative store image shows LED bulbs and other lighting products alongside the brand’s familiar battery focus. Those displays illustrate the broader assortment, not a confirmed layout for the new Amarillo building.
The company’s website also highlights key-fob programming and device-repair services. Specific services and availability at the future I-40 West store will need confirmation as opening details emerge.
Batteries Plus Amarillo Construction Timeline
The registered construction scope has an estimated value of $554,400. Work is currently scheduled from October 2026 through June 2027, covering the new building and associated site work.
However, that construction window is not a confirmed opening date. It also does not resolve the future of the Coulter Street location, so shoppers should continue using the company’s current store information for visits.
For now, the clear development is a new standalone retail building for a brand already serving Amarillo. Along I-40 West, Batteries Plus is planning space for a business built around keeping vehicles, devices and everyday essentials working.
