“Community and people are key,” Jonnette Kraft said. “Treat them right and they’ll treat your right.”
Kraft has owned the Smoking Dog cigar shop for nine years, almost all of that time in Maple Shade.
“We offer hand rolled premium cigars with experts to help you enrich your experience,” she said.
Kraft served for 21 years in the Army National Guard and Air National Guard and it was there she was turned on to cigars.
While she was on duty at the Fresh Kills Landfill there was a group of military and other personnel that would smoke cigars together and they introduced her to the art of cigar smoking.
“It was quite funny when I came home on my day off and told my husband we had a new hobby – smoking cigars,” Kraft said. “He was shocked because I hated smoking.
“I had to explain to him this is so much different,” she added. “It is a relaxing meditative breathing not really smoking at all.”
Kraft said she would recommend Maple Shade to someone looking to open a business here.
“This community is very supportive,” she said. “The township is very supportive and that is huge.”
Kraft said the greatest challenge the Maple Shade Business Association faces is “big government hurting small business.”
“Big government hurts us with their rules and regulations,” she said. “They project their morality on us as a business.
“People enjoy having a cigar once in a while and it is not up to the government to regulate us out of existence or tax us to the point that the state and tobacco businesses lose money to Pennsylvania and Delaware,” Kraft added. “The sin tax and regulations are not equal in anyway with any other business.
“They attack legal substances,” she continued. “If they hated them so much make them illegal.”
Kraft said the MSBA is not affected by the regulations she mentioned.
“I am sure our association is not in jeopardy from big government as it is very well run and everyone does a great job working together in the township,” she said. “I really am so glad we opened our doors in Maple Shade – everyone has always been so supportive.”
Kraft grew up in Kansas and Texas and graduated from Sweetwater, Texas.
She and her family have called Westampton home “for 20 lovely years.”
In her spare time, Kraft enjoys gardening, art, quilting, knitting, and smoking cigars.

“Communication is key.”
That’s what graphic designer and promotional coordinator Denise Salvano said is the most important thing she’s learned in the nearly 36 years she’s worked at Stonhard.
“With nearly a century in business Stonhard [which has been in Maple Shade since 1962], is the unprecedented leader in manufacturing and installing high performance epoxy and urethane floor, wall, and lining systems,” Salvano said. “Stonhard’s seamless, long-wearing and easy-to-clean systems are engineered to perform in both industrial and commercial environments without sacrificing design innovative vision.
“We work with you directly,” she added. “Available for both new construction and retrofit/rehab projects.”
Stonhard makes floors that protect work environments from chemical attack, impact, abrasion, thermal cycling, along with daily wear and tear.
Salvano said she would recommend Maple Shade to someone looking to open a business there.
“It has a great backbone, long history, community support,” she said.
Salvano said she is a member of the Maple Shade Business Association “representing and supporting our community.”
Having grown up and graduated from Pennsauken, she has lived in Maple Shade for 33 years.
“Spending quality time with my family and friends” is what Salvano says she does in her spare time.
