“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.

“Over decades of experience, I have learned that business and trust are earned,” John Kunyczka, Jr. said.
“Our clients trust us to find the right solutions, and we are going to provide quality service to meet their needs,” the owner of United Benefits Group added. “We don’t take our clients for granted; we appreciate and value each client and work to ensure their expectations are met.”
Kunyczka’s business has been around for 15 years.
He began his professional career in the banking industry in 1995. After four years in the industry, he changed to the insurance industry to work with his father.
“In 2005, I had the opportunity to start my agency,” Kunyczka said. “United Benefits has continued growing its product portfolio and services ever since.”
He said his business is unique due to its approach to solutions and engagement.
“We understand that employers are different and need specific solutions,” Kunyczka said. “United Benefits delivers tailored services to accomplish their goals.”
He said he would recommend Maple Shade to someone looking to open a business here because the township offers new businesses the resources needed to develop and grow.
“The township is a business-friendly community that supports economic development for businesses of all sizes,” Kunyczka said. “I believe United Benefits offers valuable resources and services to local businesses.”
So what is the greatest challenge the Maple Shade Business Association faces?
“It is maintaining valuable relationships to increase membership growth and offer services that support local business needs,” he said.

He has been living in Hamilton, N.J. for the past five years.
Kunyczka says in his free time he likes traveling abroad to learn about other cultures and trying different types of food.
