Moved a whole section of a site to its own domain: now what?

I had a cubecart store set up here:

www.theafricangreyparrot.com/store

However I am transferring the store to a domain of its own here:

www.viparrot.com

What steps should I take. For example how do I redirect all the visitors?

Should I just delete it and lose the traffic for a while?

Not sure what to do here so looking forward to your valuable advice!!

Thanks

How about doing a htaccess redirection?

Something like this:

Redirect 301 /store http://www.viparrot.com

Code (markup):

 

Thanks for your reply. Where would I do this?

Put it in a file named .htaccess on your old domain:

theafricangreyparrot.com/.htaccess

 

Just make sure there isn't an existing .htaccess file in your root directory before you do this. If there is one, you can just add the 301 redirect to it.
