I'm sure blackmailing him will have the effect of getting him to do many more Mitzvos...
You missed the point. Let me quote what I was responding to:
as long as he is not doing malacha specifically for you on shobbos you should be fine.

you arent obligated to go by someone else's ultimatum.

this all assumes he is jewish, that was never actually said.

ETA even if you convince him to close his business on shobbos I doubt he will actually be shomer shobbos 
A. Nothing in that post mentioned anything about threatening to leave or tell other customers to stop using him.
B. Convincing is not blackmailing.

many gedolim and rabbonim in the past century and beyond have placed great emphasis on coaxing Jewish store owners to close on shabbos despite them being otherwise obvious mechalelei shabbos

Let me get this straight. This non-observant JEWISH barber serves a predominantly frum clientele... and he's not booked up for Friday night invitations for the rest of the year?

TimT, you are the OP of this question. Will you please invite the Jewish barber to your house for shabbos?

He's an older gentleman. He has jewish as well as non-jewish customers. People have tried everything, but he has his mind set that Sunday is the only day he could close as that's the only day he could go visit his grandchildren wherever. Some of the non-jewish customers come specially on shabbos as there won't be long lines.

Al pi halacha there's no issue. On the hashkafa side there's a problem that if this becomes the norm people will forget hilchos treafia etc.
Maybe this will help start the hock

-1 I belive the Halacha is that if one were to mix with a non Ben pekuah then it would be assur to shecht that animal. That being said this farm would have to be extra extra careful in monitoring  that not one of these animals gets out because if it does it can create serious Halacha shailos in regard to the kashrus status of all the other cows in the world.

I think the US location had very tight security and surveillance due to this and other concerns if foul play

Obviously we're discussing that they are being extra careful.
