Rockville, MD, Oct. 9, 2024 – Visit Montgomery is pleased to announce the launch of the MoCo Eats Food & Beverage Showcase scheduled for March 30 & 31, 2025, at the Hilton Rockville, Maryland.

The conference agenda will include breakout sessions on topics relative to the needs of the industry, student-to-business open forums, and exchanges and opportunities for peer-to-peer discussions. Attendees will be invited to enjoy food and beverage tastings, learn more about local and regional products, and purchase items.

“The MoCo Eats Food & Beverage Showcase not only celebrates our county’s cultural diversity through food but also strengthens our commitment to education and workforce development,” said Andrew Friedson, Montgomery County Council President. “By partnering with Montgomery County Public Schools and Montgomery College’s hospitality programs, this event provides students with hands-on experience and direct exposure to industry leaders. It’s an exciting opportunity to foster the next generation of culinary talent.”

Montgomery College and Montgomery County Public Schools hospitality program students will have a chance to help as volunteers, and participate in breakout sessions and cooking demonstrations. Visit Montgomery is also collaborating with the MoCo Food Council and the Restaurant Association of Maryland for the Showcase.

Invited vendors include food trucks, caterers, breweries, wineries, distilleries, locally made artisans and food products, event venues, and any suppliers to the hospitality industry businesses in Montgomery County, MD. The goal of the showcase is to:

  2. Promote the county’s social economy by introducing and showcasing local flavor and entrepreneurial spirit in a consumer-attended expo that celebrates Montgomery County’s diversity through cuisine and beverage tastings (food trucks, restaurants, wineries, and breweries).

“By bringing together industry leaders, local businesses, and our community, this showcase highlights the exceptional talent in our region and reinforces Montgomery County’s position as a premier destination for culinary innovation.

The new €290 million ($317 million) 23,000 SF facility streamlines MilliporeSigma's operations and is expected to bring new jobs to Rockville

Burlington, MA, Oct. 9, 2024 – MilliporeSigma, the U.S. and Canada Life Science business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, has opened its new €290 million biosafety testing facility in Rockville, Maryland, USA. Biosafety testing and analytical development are fundamental components of drug development and commercialization for traditional and novel modalities. Global demand for these services is growing at a double-digit rate1.

“This expansion is the largest investment in contract testing in the company’s history and will allow us to drive automation and technology development in one integrated hub,” said Benjamin Hein, Head of Life Science Services, Life Science business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany. “It reflects our commitment to providing our clients with disruptive platforms that shorten biosafety testing timelines, meet the growing global demand, and ensure the safety of the world’s medicines for patients.”

The 23,000-square-meter facility will house biosafety testing, analytical development, and cell banking manufacturing services. It consolidates labs currently spread across four buildings into a single facility. This will increase collaboration between scientists and enable a higher level of automation and digitalization to increase Right First Time (RFT).

The Life Science business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, has made significant investments over the last five years to expand its biosafety testing capabilities for clients across the globe. The company’s global biosafety testing network includes sites in Shanghai, China; Singapore; Stirling and Glasgow, UK; and Rockville, MD, USA.

The new site will feature advanced testing capabilities, including a rapid methods package, designed to accelerate virus testing of bulk harvest material.  This package is the first to include the Blazar® CHO Animal Origin Free (AOF) panel, a targeted molecular method for detecting virus families. By combining the Blazar® CHO AOF panel with assays for mycoplasma, sterility, and retrovirus-like particle detection, test results can be obtained in just 14 days, compared to 35 days with traditional assay methods.

The Life Science business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, offers a broad multi-modality testing portfolio, which features disruptive platforms that reduce biosafety testing timelines and deliver the highest quality standards. The portfolio includes a rapid methods package with the Blazar® CHO AOF panel, and the recently launched Aptegra™ platform, the first all-in-one, validated genetic stability assay of its kind. These innovations will enable the company to continue delivering high-quality testing services and regulatory expertise to bring life-changing medicines to patients more quickly and safely.

WalletHub's 2024 study compared more than 1,300 U.S. cities with populations between 25,000 and 100,000

Article originally published by Rockville Reports on October 2, 2024

Rockville has been named the best small city for livability in Maryland, according to WalletHub rankings released this week.

WalletHub compared 1,318 cities in the U.S. across five key dimensions: affordability, economic health, education and health, quality of life, and safety. Those five dimensions were further evaluated through 45 relevant metrics, each on a 100-point scale, such as median household income, home ownership, school system quality, health, crime rates and quality of life.

In all, 37 towns and cities in Maryland were ranked, of which the top five by percentile score were Rockville, Annapolis, Frederick, Bethesda and Ellicott City.

Cities were selected with population sizes between 25,000 and 100,000 that are considered the “city proper” in each case, excluding cities in the surrounding metro area.

Rockville has ranked highly in previous WalletHub and other studies for its ethnic diversity and livability, as well as by its own residents in biennial community surveys the city conducts.

Business Spotlight: MasPanadas

Posted on by Amanda Bosland
Founder, Margarita Womack

"Flavor filled pockets of goodness!"

What does MasPanadas offer?

At the heart of our endeavor lies our inaugural product line: MasPanadas, where we embrace the ethos of ‘MAS’ in every aspect. There are no compromises when it comes to convenience, taste, or nutrition. From freezer to table in mere minutes, our empanadas—handheld pockets of flavor—feature impeccably sourced ingredients suitable for any kitchen. Versatile for every occasion—be it a hearty meal, a delectable appetizer, or a satisfying snack—each one is infused with the rich heritage of Latin American culinary tradition.

MasPanadas offer real food for life in the fast lane. Based on typical Hispanic street foods, MasPanadas offer the convenience and portability of fast food and the wholesomeness of a homemade meal for the whole family: a balanced bite in a pocket. This complete snack can be prepared in minutes and is ready to go with you anywhere: microwavable, no utensils needed, high in protein and fiber, and packed with veggies.

What motivated the start of the business?

It was, in a sense, an ‘accidental’ journey. As a native Colombian, I fled to the US 24 years ago when my family faced extortion by a guerrilla group. Determined to turn adversity into opportunity, I focused on my studies, earning both a PhD in science and an MBA. The true depth of separation from family and community hit me when I juggled raising two young boys, managing a newborn, and maintaining a full-time job. Desperate for support, a family friend came to our aid. To keep her with us, we embarked on a venture with a cultural twist—a modern Latin American catering company, designed not only to fulfill a business need but also to secure her visa as our chef. As our business gained traction, we discovered that empanadas were our bestsellers, uncovering a genuine opportunity in the frozen foods market.

What makes MasPanadas unique?

Authentic Latin American Flavors with a Modern Twist: MasPanadas offers traditional Latin American flavors that have been elevated with modern culinary techniques and ingredients. This blend of authenticity and innovation appeals to consumers looking for a fresh take on familiar favorites.

Focus on Nutrition and Clean Eating: MasPanadas prioritizes nutrition and clean eating by using high-quality, wholesome ingredients. Each empanada is crafted with care, ensuring that consumers can enjoy a convenient meal without sacrificing healthfulness.

Convenience without Compromise: MasPanadas delivers convenience without compromising on taste or nutrition. From freezer to table in minutes, these handheld pockets of flavor provide a quick and satisfying meal option for busy individuals and families.

Versatility for Every Occasion: Whether enjoyed as a meal, appetizer, or snack, MasPanadas are versatile enough to fit any occasion. Their portability and ease of preparation make them ideal for on-the-go consumption or entertaining guests.

Empowerment of Vulnerable Women: MasPanadas goes beyond just being a food company by actively empowering vulnerable women through employment opportunities. By hiring and supporting these individuals, MasPanadas not only enriches their lives but also contributes to the community in a meaningful way.

Why did you choose to run your business in Rockville?

Opportunity. There was a kitchen space readily available with everything we needed to continue scaling once we outgrew the incubator kitchen. 

Where do you see your business in 5 years from now?

We hope to be the go-to empanada brand across the US!!

About MasPanadas

Latin Goodness Foods keeps you going by providing a better-for-you, clean take on convenient food options inspired in Hispanic tradition. Offering delicious, authentically Latin-inspired, modern recipes from a Colombian founder with a compelling personal story and meaningful social mission. Its first brand is MasPanadas, an elevated version of a “Hot Pocket.” This complete snack or light meal is convenient yet wholesome: microwavable, no utensils needed, high in protein and fiber, and packed with veggies. They are right for the whole family, fitting just as well with a glass of wine as with a juice box.

MasPanadas is located at 14672-B Southlawn Lane, Rockville, MD 20850

Business Spotlight: Nature by Trejok

Posted on by Amanda Bosland
Founder, Dr. Kenia Garcia
"Where vintage charm meets contemporary elegance in a celebration of history, creativity, and sustainability."
What does Nature by Trejok offer?

We provide an experience where art, creativity, and meticulous curation come together. At our boutique, you’ll find uniquely designed, ready-to-wear collections of clothing, shoes, and accessories, each piece infused with contemporary flair and a hint of vintage charm. In addition, we curate one-of-a-kind vintage treasures, including elegant Chinas, collectible items, and home goods that inspire and captivate. Every item we offer tells a story and adds a touch of inspiration to your everyday life.

What motivated the start of the business?

As a physician trained abroad, I embarked on this entrepreneurial journey to fund my dream of obtaining a U.S. medical license. But my inspiration goes deeper—it stems from my grandmother, Josefa Trejo, whose legacy of elegance and sophistication profoundly shaped my vision. She spent many years in Europe, amassing collections from Limoges, Richard Ginori, and Royal Doulton, which became symbols of her refined taste. My store is a tribute to her influence, blending my childhood memories with her timeless style. Each of my designs carries the spirit of her grace, interwoven with my modern touch, creating a unique fusion of past and present.

What makes Nature by Trejok unique?

What sets us apart is the personal connection we build with our clients. Each piece in our collection of clothing, shoes, and accessories is one-of-a-kind, often customized to match the client’s lifestyle and personal preferences. In our on-site creative laboratory, customers can witness the craftsmanship firsthand, selecting their preferred materials, colors, and textures. We are a dynamic blend of creativity, originality, and artistic flair. Our clients consistently express awe, saying, “I’ve never seen anything like this,” upon entering our boutique. Whether they’re first-time visitors or loyal returning customers, they’re greeted by ever-evolving displays and innovative products, all reflecting their unique desires.

Why did you choose to run your business in Rockville?

Our journey began in Rockville in 2019 through the Maryland Women’s Business Center’s retail incubator program, MWBC Shop Local. By the end of the program, we had forged a deep connection with the local community, which inspired us to settle in Rockville Town Square. The warm embrace of Rockville’s people and the strong sense of belonging we feel here have made this the perfect home for our business. We love Rockville, and Rockville loves us back.

Where do you see your business in 5 years from now?

In five years, I envision our business expanding to two or three additional locations across the DMV area, and possibly beyond, into other states. We’re laying the groundwork for growth, with our eyes set on bringing our unique blend of creativity and craftsmanship to even more communities.

In shows we’ve participated in across other states, such as New York, we’ve left a lasting impression that has led to being invited to the prestigious New York Fashion Week on three occasions, showcasing our collection of upcycled shoes, accessories, and clothing. We’ve also been invited to participate in Paris and Milan, and we foresee ourselves gracing the runways of these fashion capitals sooner than expected, as soon as financial resources allow. We are working diligently to make this vision a reality in the near future, as we continue our journey to conquer the world of fashion.
