I f you’re looking for a new signature sauce, Capital City has you covered. Established in 2011, the company sells a Washington, D.C., staple condiment called mambo sauce — a perfect blend of sweet and savory with a bit of a kick. Mambo sauce comes as either mild or sweet hot, which has a hint of cayenne and habanero pepper, and is best paired with fried chicken wings.
The company was founded by owners Charles and Arsha Jones in 2011. After Arsha and her family moved from Washington, D.C., to Maryland, she felt nostalgic and made them the sauce recipe from her childhood. Eventually they decided that it was tasty enough to market and sell. The Jones family has grown this home-based business into a successful company, providing a beloved product from their childhood to more people around the world. Capital City’s signature sauce can be purchased at multiple retail locations in the Washington, D.C., area including Target, Papa John’s, Walmart, Amazon and Marriott hotels. In addition to buying a bottle of mambo sauce, customers can find full recipes, sauce bundles and even T-shirts on the company’s website. “Although running a business is hard, it is rewarding getting positive feedback
from customers who love our products,” said Arsha. Even though they are a small company, Capital City lends their support to other businesses, such as trucking, suppliers, labels and manufacturing. Further, they specifically seek out other small and/or local businesses to purchase products and services from. With five on-site employees, Capital City’s more than 8,000-square-foot space at Melford Town Center is primarily used for warehousing, with a location that’s perfectly suited to grow. By working with St. John Properties, the company was able to customize their space to fit a growing staff and sustain their current business. They collaborated with St. John Properties’ in-house interior design and interior construction teams to painlessly construct the space of their dreams.
“Any issues we have on-site, there’s a team member a phone call away to help us get problems resolved quickly. Which, as a small business, is extremely helpful. Our time is more valuable being spent running our business, as opposed to fixing issues with the property,” said Arsha.
“The support is what sets the St. John’s team apart from other real estate property management companies.” – Arsha Jones, Owner, Capital City
