About Us
Texas Motive Solutions is an authorized distributor and service provider of Hawker Powersource, Inc. batteries, chargers and accessories, with locations in Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston and San Antonio, Texas.
Dedicated to your success
Texas Motive Solutions is the exclusive provider of Hawker Powersource, Inc. motive battery sales and service solutions to forklift dealers in Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio and surrounding communities. Evin Sisemore, a veteran of the battery industry, and her husband, attorney Justin Sisemore, founded the company in 2018.
From the outset, the Sisemores envisioned the company’s foundation cemented in both quality and service. Along with representing the best motive product line in the industry—Hawker Powersource, Inc.—Texas Motive Solutions set the bar high, promising to provide unmatched sales, service and technical support for forklift dealers in the Texas market.
To deliver on that promise, Texas Motive Solutions hired the best sales, operations and service professionals in the industry. If you’re a veteran of this industry, you’ll find many familiar faces on our team—some with as many as 30 years of experience in the material handling and forklift battery world.
At Texas Motive Solutions, we believe people choose to work with people, not companies—and they choose to work with people they trust. Our customers trust our people will be there when they need us. They also trust we’ll deliver the quality products, service and solutions that keep their warehouses and forklift fleets running day and night.
Recognizing that prompt and efficient service was lacking in the motive battery sales and solutions niche, Texas Motive Solutions set out to be different from day one. As our company grows and evolves, we continue to invest in hiring and training service-minded technicians, so our customers get the technical support they need a.s.a.p.
While Texas Motive Solutions aims to provide the very best service for our customers—something we work at every day—faith and integrity remain the heart and soul of our business. Service comes third only to Christ and family because without him we can do nothing.
To our loyal clients:
Thank you for trusting us to be there when you need us. Serving you continues to be both a blessing and an honor.

Evin Sisemore
Founder & CEO
Evin Sisemore founded Texas Motive Solutions in 2018 following a 10+ year career in sales management and customer service roles. Recently, Evin was honored to be nominated as one of Fort Worth Inc.’s 2020 Entrepreneurs of Excellence. The Texas native and LSU graduate developed her business and operational skills as a fleet manager and account manager, selling systems and solutions to help companies improve productivity and minimize maintenance and operating costs. In 2012, Evin took a position at Interstate Batteries in Dallas, where she fell in love with the battery business, and her true passion for sales, customer service and problem solving took hold. When presented with the opportunity to launch her own motive battery sales and service company, Evin and her husband, attorney Justin Sisemore, didn’t hesitate. Thanks to deep ties and friendships in the material handling and motive industries, Evin surrounded herself with an industry-leading team committed to Texas Motive Solutions’ mission: Christ, Family, Service, Sales. As a CEO with a passion for sales, service and solutions, Evin has played an integral role in the company’s consistent growth since launch. The mother of three beautiful daughters and wife to Justin also relishes family time and her faith in God. While juggling business and family responsibilities is never easy, Evin remains grateful for these blessings and looks forward to leading Texas Motive Solutions as it grows and evolves in the years to come.
