EAST LONGMEADOW — Gift-ology has closed its storefront in Westfield and moved to East Longmeadow.
The popular shop is now located in the former 4Run3 space in the Center Square Plaza.
Owner and president Camile Hannoush said, “We’re incredibly excited about this opportunity, and the location is fantastic. We’ve received a lot of positive feedback from our clients since our time in Longmeadow, and they’re thrilled that we’re returning to the area.”
He continued, “Westfield was somewhat isolated, situated on a main road with limited shopping options, making it challenging to attract foot traffic. I believe this new location is a much better fit for our brand.”
Gift-ology offers a wide variety of gifts, including anniversary, birthday, Christmas, holiday, wedding and graduation gifts; essentially every type of gift you can think of. They feature popular lines of jewelry, candles, handbags, unique handmade brands and men’s gift items. They will also be partnering with locally made brands to increase their awareness in the market as well. This concept has shown great success with the Pat Barker wine glass hand painted line they’ve carried for over 12 years. Gift-ology will also continue to provide free gift wrapping and exceptional customer service.
Their first store opened in 2008 at the Eastfield Mall in Springfield, followed by a second location in Longmeadow, which remained open until they moved to Westfield. Their vision is to create a gift store that perfects the art of gift giving.
“One of the best things about working at Gift-ology is the satisfaction you get when you help select the perfect gift the client is looking for,” said Hannoush. “We aim to offer convenience for shoppers, and the demographic in the East Longmeadow, Longmeadow, and Springfield areas is ideal for our products and gift items.”
He went on to say, “We’ve opened our doors, but we’re still in the process of setting up and organizing. There’s still work to be done, including building new fixtures for the store. Our goal is to develop this concept and integrate it into the community. We will be planning a grand opening in the next few weeks.”
Gift-ology is located at 78 Center Sq. It is open Sunday and Monday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Visit giftology.com or their Facebook page, facebook.com/giftologyEastLongmeadow. You can also call the store at 413-200-7428.
