PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY — An insurance company headquartered in Prince William County encourages young professionals to write on the walls.


Local business capital advisor and direct lender One Degree Capital is expanding their successful series “Capital Over Coffee.” These informal forums are hosted at local coffee shops throughout the DC Metro area providing local business owners an opportunity to ask questions about finding and securing business loans in an informal setting without the hassle and formality of going through a loan application process just to get feedback from a lender.

“Our first Capital Over Coffee event in Falls Church, Virginia, sold out quickly,” explains Rod Loges, co-founder, and president of One Degree Capital. “As word spread we had several other business owners asking when we would be hosting an event near them. It just seemed logical to expand into other areas in the DC Metro area.”


WOODBRIDGE — The new and improved Woodbridge ALDI is scheduled to reopen on Friday, August 18. Their Official Grand Reopening and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony, followed by a Golden Ticket giveaway, eco-friendly bag distribution, and Produce for a Year sweepstakes, is scheduled to begin at 7:50 a.m.

This newly updated location is one of 1,300 U.S. stores the company plans to remodel by 2020. The Woodbridge store joins other remodeled ALDI’s locations in Manassas, North Stafford, and Fredericksburg that opened earlier this summer.
