About a year after opening its doors, the North Fork Bagel Company in Mattituck has locked its doors and was issued a stop-work order by the state.
According to a flyer posted at the bagel shop dated June 20, the company and owner, JJ Madison, failed to secure Workers’ Compensation coverage.
A phone call to the state’s Workers’ Compensation Board wasn’t immediately returned Thursday. Donielle Cardinale of Cardinale Group-Daniel Gale Sotheby, whose company owns the shopping center, wasn’t immediately available for comment.
The bagel shop opened a few months after the North Fork Bagel Cafe closed in January 2012. That cafe had been in business for nearly 15 years.
