Shoptalk: Haddonfield Business

The Little Tuna Not So Little Anymore

The Haddonfield seafood and steakhouse restaurant expands.

The Little Tuna restaurant is expanding into the storefront next door that used to be Forever Young Emporium and Jamaican Me Crazy. The restaurant at 141 Kings Highway East will annex the storefront at 139 Kings Highway East, according to Remi Fortunato, the retail recruiter for the Partnership for Haddonfield, the borough, business-tax funded business improvement district. "They're going to have a fresh fish and butchered meat market there and it will be the new entrance to the restaurant," Fortunato said. "It will have a theme like a butcher shop from the 1920s, with clerks with long, white aprons and white tiles on the walls. It will help fill a void in town for fresh fish since Haddonfield Shellfish closed last year." Haddonfield …

Forever Young, AKA, Jamaican Me Crazy, Leaving Town

Local favorites HerSport and Forever Young Emporium are leaving Haddonfield in January. A third business, Georgie Girl, will close in June 2013.

Relocation signs on two mainstays in the Haddonfield Business District have many customers wondering why. HerSport, a female athlete's "go to" source for apparel, field hockey, lacrosse and soccer gear is moving from its Kings Highway location on Jan. 1.

"The ceilings are three feet higher and we will have a wider storefront making the store more interactive for field hockey and lacrosse players selecting equipment." HerSport is a destination store for school teams around South Jersey. "I looked for a space to accommodate our needs in Haddonfield, but nothing worked," Gallagher said Friday. "The current location does not have convenient parking for …

Jamaican Will No Longer Be Making You Crazy

Haddonfield's Kings Highway apparel and gift shop will now be known as Forever Young Emporium.

Gary Reses said he was tired of his apparel and gift shop being confused with other stores sharing the same name, especially at the Jersey Shore. So tired, in fact, that he recently changed the name from Jamaican Me Crazy to Forever Young Emporium. "Same great store, same great merchandise," Reses said one day this week while standing behind the counter of his store. "There are stores at the shore we're not affiliated with and didn't want to be confused for." Reses had operated Jamaican Me Crazy for nearly 11 years at 139 Kings Highway East. He clearly hopes the name change will keep him in business for another 11 years or more. Reses' Jamaican Me Crazy gained distinction last year after a store surveillance video of a thief stealing a …
