About Us

Markets

In 1980 Barrie Farrow partnered with Hong Kong Based GP Batteries as their approved Australian and New Zealand importer, distributor and sales agent. With a range of primary, secondary and specialist batteries Powercell quickly gained a national reputation within the niche retail markets as a supplier of high performing and hard to find batteries. Continued growth over the next 40 years has seen strategic alliances formed with a number of suppliers, allowing for expansion and supply into a diverse range of highly recognised clients across OEM, industrial, mining, defence, communications, commercial and the specialised retail sectors.
