GS Yuasa have announced a new partnership with world-famous confectionary brand Tunnock’s. The partnership sees the two brands join forces to treat vehicle technicians over winter, a period associated with high rates of battery failure.

Available at no cost with qualifying purchases of Yuasa and GS-branded batteries from participating stockists, the ongoing promotion will see vehicle technicians receive a free pack of Tunnock’s Snowballs with their battery purchases over winter.

The Treat Yourself to a Tunnock’s initiative follows the huge success of GS Yuasa’s snack pack and eggstra promotions and brings together two iconic brands and long-time supporters of the three-time BTCC Champion Gordon ‘Flash’ Shedden who fronts the campaign. 

Each promotional pack contains eight Snowballs as well as a unique code for the battery manufacturer’s exclusive competition. With a smart watch, a Gordon Shedden experience at Knockhill racing circuit and three GS Yuasa ‘Winter Workshop’ kits up for grabs, workshops and technicians are encouraged to complete the entry form on the GS Yuasa website for their chance to win.

Jon Pritchard, General Sales & Marketing Manager at GS Yuasa Battery Sales UK Ltd. said, “We know this is an incredibly busy time for workshops, in fact, more batteries fail in winter than at any other time of year. That’s why our latest promotion encourages vehicle technicians to take a well-earned break and treat themselves to a Tunnock’s. By choosing an OE quality, GS Yuasa-manufactured battery, you’re ensuring your customers avoid a non-start situation, the last thing anyone wants on a frosty morning.”

GS Yuasa, the Japanese battery manufacturer of both Yuasa and GS-branded batteries, is renowned for offering the highest levels of quality, service and support. The Yuasa YBX range is the number one for vehicle batteries, whether conventional lead-acid, EFB or AGM. All GS Yuasa batteries, whether Yuasa or GS-branded, are of Original Equipment (OE) quality and designed to provide reliable starting power for a diverse range of vehicles.

Available from participating Yuasa and GS distributors, GS Yuasa’s Tunnock’s promotion is exclusively for the trade and will run from early October to the end of February, or while stocks last. To find out more, visit www.gs-yuasa.eu/tunnocks/
