Tackle Box Celebrates 50th Anniversary In Hazlet

HAZLET, NJ — A well-known Jersey Shore fishing supply store recently celebrated 50 years in business.

In October, the Board of County Commissioners, through the Open for Business in Monmouth initiative, congratulated the owners of the Tackle Box, the Sciortino Family, as the business celebrated its 50^th anniversary.

“My fellow Commissioners and I are proud to support our local businesses and recognize important milestones like the Tackle Box’s 50th anniversary,” Commissioner Director Thomas Arnone said.

Since 1976, Tackle Box has been serving the community with fishing gear and other sportfishing supplies, Arnone said.

Today, customers can drop by the store to shop for bait and lures, headwear, shirts, hoods and more.

“Reaching 50 years in business is an incredible achievement that reflects years of hard work, dedication, and the ability to adapt and grow,” Arnone said. “Congratulations on this milestone and best wishes for continued success.”

Open for Business in Monmouth is designed to support, promote, and celebrate businesses in all 53 Monmouth County municipalities.

Business owners and operators, municipalities and chambers of commerce are invited to request county participation in, or coordination of, ribbon-cutting ceremonies for new businesses, expansions, relocations, grand openings and milestone anniversaries.
