Willmington, North Carolina skate and surf shop Doublewide at 24 Front St. will have to close for 60-90 days thanks to the building being ruled “unsafe” by an engineering firm, according to the Star News Online.
Jimmy Ellington, owner of Doublewide Skate & Surf Shop, said his business will remain closed until repairs are complete. . . “Hopefully we’ll only be closed or shut down for a 60 to 90 day period,” he said. . . Ellington said closing temporarily during the winter months would cost the company less than it would to move to a new building. The company also has a second location at 14921 U.S. 17 in Hampstead.
How’s that for a glitch in the 2010 revenue model. Good thing they have a great online store and are part of Berrics Unified. That ought to get them through.
