Prime I-Drive property near Epic Universe up for sale
A prime piece of real estate on Orlando's International Drive is hitting the market, and its owner believes the timing couldn't be better with a major new theme park on the horizon.
Story Highlights Wallack Holdings lists part of Mango's Tropical Cafe complex for sale.
Empty 7,000-square-foot building has potential for 5,000-square-foot mezzanine addition.
Universal's Epic Universe opening expected to increase property demand.
A building in a popular spot in Orlando's tourist corridor is up for sale.
The northmost third of the Mango's Tropical Cafe complex at 8102 International Drive was put on the market this month by Mango's owner Wallack Holdings LLC.
Formerly the home of the Visit Orlando Official Visitor Center, the 7,000-square-foot building is empty with 30-foot ceilings.
"It's basically a shell," said Josh Wallack, CEO of Wallack Holdings. The building also has the option of adding a 5,000-square-foot mezzanine on the roof.

The building abuts Kali Ultra Lounge, a dance club which is also used for overflow seating for upscale Argentinian restaurant Corazón by Baires. Wallack said he had the walls between the two spaces reinforced with concrete and steel to eliminate noise.
The property has been listed without a price. Wallack bought the entire 2.9-acre property in 2012 for $10.4 million.
Joe Ramsberger, vice president of retail services in Orlando for brokerage CBRE, is handling the listing. Ramsberger could not be reached for comment.
The opening of Universal's Epic Universe theme park in May, which is expected to draw in 5-7 million visitors in its first year, will make this property highly sought after, Wallack said. "Everyone's waiting for Epic."
I-Drive has more than $5 billion in announced redevelopment projects outside of Epic Universe, according to Maria Triscari, president and CEO of International Drive Resort Area Chamber of Commerce.

"We have right now a tremendous transformation happening of I-Drive," Triscari previously told Orlando Business Journal. "It's exactly what needs to happen so that we stay competitive in the future."
In addition to 7,393 new or renovated hotel rooms and vacation units in the works, the traditional tourist sector also has nearly 4,000 residential units from apartments to single-family homes in development. The Orange County Convention Center is also slated to start its $560 million expansion in 2026.
Meanwhile, tourist activity is predicted to be slower than usual due to international travelers avoiding the U.S. over President Trump's tariff policies. According to recent data from the International Trade Administration, non-U.S. citizen international air travel arrivals to this country were down 9% year-over-year in March — and that was before full details of the tariff policy were known.

Currency Exchange International Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results
TORONTO, June 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Currency Exchange International, Corp. (the 'Group' or 'CXI') (TSX: CXI; OTCQX: CURN), today reported net income of $1.98 million for the second quarter of 2025, 291% higher than the prior year (all figures are in U.S. dollars except where otherwise indicated). This 2025 reported net income reflected $2.7 million net income from continuing operations and a net loss of $0.7 million from Exchange Bank of Canada, the Company's Canadian subsidiary which was classified as discontinued operations effective the second quarter of 2025. These results include restructuring charges of $0.2 million, pre-tax, related to discontinued operations in Canada and certain one-time charges of $0.1 million, pre-tax. Excluding these items, the Group's adjusted net income1 increased by 18% compared to the prior year and adjusted diluted earnings per share1 ('EPS') was 24% higher than the prior year. The completed condensed interim consolidated financial statements and management's discussion and analysis ('MD&A') can be found on the Group's SEDAR profile at Q2, 2025 Reported Results EBITDA $4.9 million Up 10% YoY Net Income $1.98 million Up 291% YoY Diluted EPS $0.31Up 288% YoY Annualized ROE 5% Down 50% YoY Q2, 2025 Adjusted Results1 EBITDA1 $5.1 million Up 15% YoY Net Income1 $2.3 millionUp 18% YoY Diluted EPS1 $0.36 Up 24% YoY Annualized ROE1 12%Flat YoY Below is a reconciliation of reported results to adjusted results based on non-recurring items: Three-month period endedApril 30, 2025 Three-month period endedApril 30, 2024 Six-month period endedApril 30, 2025 Six-monthperiod endedApril 30, 2024 Reported results $ $ $ $ EBITDA 4,901,810 4,470,061 8,755,560 7,755,158 Group net income 1,983,025 506,522 2,795,555 1,356,397 Pre-tax adjusting items Specified item: Restructuring charges 229,404 - 229,404 - Specified item: Advisory costs* 145,452 - 425,513 - Specified item: Deferred tax assets reversal* - 1,427,600 - 1,429,850 1,427,600 654,917Impact of income tax (72,073) - (80,647) - Adjusted results** EBITDA 5,131,214 4,470,061 8,984,964 7,755,158 Group net income 2,285,808 1,934,122 3,369,825 2,786,247Group Diluted earnings per share Reported 0.31 0.08 0.44 0.21 Adjusted** 0.36 0.29 0.53 0.42 *These adjustments are reported within the results from discontinued operations. **These are non-GAAP financial measures and ratios. For further details, refer to the key performance and non-GAAP financial measures section below. Total revenue was 3% lower than the prior year due to a decline in consumer demand for foreign currency as travel activity tapered during the current quarter. Although revenue declined, the Company's net income for the second quarter rose compared to the same quarter last year, primarily due to the favorable impact of a weaker U.S. Dollar on the revaluation of foreign currency banknote holdings. The Group's capital position remained robust, and liquidity was strong with $81.2 million in total equity and $60.4 million in net working capital as of April 30, 2025 ($79.4 million and $55.9 million as of October 31, 2024, respectively). All reported amounts are based on the Group's condensed interim consolidated financial statements presented in compliance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial reporting, unless otherwise noted. On February 18, 2025, the Group announced its decision to cease the operations of its wholly owned subsidiary, Exchange Bank of Canada. This strategic decision and operational plan for restructuring were communicated to all staff of EBC on February 19, 2025. Following the cessation of operations, the Bank intends to apply to the Minister of Finance in Canada to discontinue from the Bank Act. The application to discontinue is expected to be made in the fourth quarter of 2025, with the actual discontinuance of the Bank being subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals. Following the Group's decision, management has commenced implementation of the restructuring and planned discontinuance of the Bank. Management anticipates that certain operating expenses and personnel costs, that are currently shared with EBC, will be 100% borne by the continuing operations of CXI, subsequent to the exit of EBC from Canada, and the current annualized estimate of these costs is approximately $3 million after tax. In the second quarter of 2025, Exchange Bank of Canada was classified as a discontinued operation in the Group's condensed interim consolidated financial statements. On May 20, 2025, CXI upgraded its U.S. securities listing with the Company's shares commencing trading on the OTCQX Best Market under the symbol CURN. Randolph Pinna, CEO of the Group, stated, 'The second quarter showed continued growth in the payments business, while with the current political and economic uncertainties, international travel activity to and from the United States decreased banknote revenues. CXI's diversified business model in the United States allows for continued new client growth in the payments business complemented by successful multi-channel banknotes offerings for both our U.S. Financial Institutions in branch or online as well as the Direct-to-Consumer customer offerings through online, agent and physical branch locations. CXI's management team and I remain committed to executing CXI's strategic plan which is focused on revenue and earnings growth as well as the return on capital and creating value for our shareholders resulting from providing leading FX technology and transaction processing solutions'.

Zero-Downtime SAP S/4HANA Cloud Migration for SMBs: A 2025 Step-by-Step Playbook Powered by AI
Small- and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) can no longer treat an ERP migration as a once-a-decade, fire-and-forget IT project. Global supply-chain shocks, rising customer expectations, and a looming SAP ECC 2027 sunset have compressed decision cycles. You need a DIY-style roadmap fast, modular, and powered by artificial intelligence—to modernise without pausing day-to-day operations or draining cash reserves. This article distils the field-tested methods Sapsol Technologies Inc. applies in real client projects. By the end you will know, step-by-step, how to move from a legacy SAP ECC or non-SAP system to SAP S/4HANA Cloud with literally seconds of cutover and where Gen-AI, predictive analytics, and machine learning amplify every phase. A project with no clear value proposition is the fastest route to cost overruns. So grab a whiteboard and write down what the board, investors and frontline users demand: Customer experience: Shoppers expect real-time inventory, personalised pricing, and instant order status. Batch-driven ECC cannot compete. Shoppers expect real-time inventory, personalised pricing, and instant order status. Batch-driven ECC cannot compete. Cash flow: IDC finds that companies embedding AI-driven demand sensing slash safety stock by 35 %. Those dollars show up as free cash. IDC finds that companies embedding AI-driven demand sensing slash safety stock by 35 %. Those dollars show up as free cash. Compliance & ESG: Regulators now inspect digital audit trails and Scope 3 emissions data. S/4HANA's built-in analytics shorten audits, while blockchain extensions like GreenToken capture ESG proof automatically. Tipping-point fact: SAP ends mainstream ECC support in 2027. For many SMBs the real deadline is 2025, because partners, lenders, and even insurance underwriters increasingly tie risk premiums to digital maturity. With purpose documented, every configuration decision can be checked against the 'Why.' Scope creep dies immediately when an idea fails that test. Zero-downtime is not marketing spin; it is an architectural pattern first popularised by hyperscale SaaS vendors and now perfected for S/4HANA Cloud migrations. Blue environment: The fresh S/4HANA Cloud tenant where you configure best-practice processes and load synchronised data.

Green environment: Your current live system—ECC, a third-party ERP, or a hybrid Frankenstein stack. Your current live system—ECC, a third-party ERP, or a hybrid Frankenstein stack. Load balancer / DNS cutover: A software switch that, once tests pass, points production traffic from Green to Blue in milliseconds. Most planned outages hide in three areas: data migration, interface rewiring, and user adoption. Neutralise all three and 'zero' becomes not only feasible but routine. Skimping on preparation torpedoes SMB projects more than any technology glitch. Confirm you have: Clean master data – duplicates and missing cost centres wreak havoc on universal journals. Process maps – even a simple Lucidchart swim-lane for procure-to-pay uncovers undocumented steps. Interface inventory – list every nightly flat-file, API, or Excel macro touching finance, supply chain, or HR. Testing culture – appoint user-acceptance leaders now; do not rely on 'we'll find volunteers later.' Executive mandate – a C-level sponsor ready to settle tie-breakers stops endless meetings. If any square remains blank, fix it first. Your migration speed is fixed by the slowest unresolved gap. Fire up Sapsol's Express Assessment Toolkit —lightning workshops, process questionnaires, and auto-generated heat-maps highlighting where your workflows diverge from S/4HANA best practices. —lightning workshops, process questionnaires, and auto-generated heat-maps highlighting where your workflows diverge from S/4HANA best practices. Score each process on a traffic-light scale. Red items trigger either redesign or a justified exception.

Schedule nightly delta loads so business keeps trading while Blue catches up daily. Provision the production-grade Blue landscape, clone integrations with SAP BTP API Management. Freeze configuration, but allow master-data deltas until twelve hours pre-switch. Execute robotic smoke tests across finance close, order-to-cash, procure-to-pay. When the dashboard shows 100 % green, flip the load balancer. Downtime? Seconds—just long enough for DNS caching to refresh. Now the fun begins. Activate revenue-lifting and cost-cutting algorithms: Boards love that you deliver tangible gains inside the first quarter rather than 'sometime next year.' For a $120 million-revenue firm, total programme cost typically lands between 0.9 % and 1.5 % of revenue. Thanks to Sapsol's accelerators you can budget on the low side and still deliver: 35 % inventory reduction via AI demand sensing. via AI demand sensing. 20 % fewer rush orders because real-time MRP spots shortages days earlier. because real-time MRP spots shortages days earlier. 40 % faster period-close courtesy of AI-suggested journal entries. At an 18 % EBITDA margin your break-even point is month 14—a timeline CFOs seldom see with traditional IT projects. Want third-party proof? Review the numbers in Sapsol's manufacturing client success story: Scope bloat – freeze your MVP. Park 'wouldn't it be nice' ideas in a post-go-live backlog. Dirty data – cleanse processes , not just records; otherwise garbage re-enters on day two. Change fatigue – swap eight-hour classroom training for 5-minute embedded Fiori videos and AI co-pilot tips. Shadow IT – publish integration design rules so citizen developers don't build rogue Excel macros that break APIs. Finance & Controlling – close books faster; executives cheer. Procurement – AI invoice match frees working capital instantly. Sales & Distribution – real-time ATP promises reduce churn. Production Planning – predictive quality cuts scrap costs. Staggered go-lives ensure every quarter shows ROI, keeping stakeholders enthusiastic. Traditional MRP reacts to yesterday's averages. Switch on predictive models and you feed weather forecasts, social-media sentiment, and supplier capacity signals into IBP. The system generates safety-stock targets per SKU, per site, per day . Clients routinely free millions in working capital without a single layout change. Employees resist change when new software slows them down. Sapsol embeds natural-language co-pilots so a buyer can ask: 'Show overdue purchase orders above $10 000' and receive an actionable list in seconds. Adoption curves shift from months to days. Accounts-payable teams hate the suspense of blocked invoices. ML models analyse historical tolerances and automatically clear matches that human approvers would sign off anyway. Result: fewer escalations and early-payment discounts claimed on autopilot. Many SMBs assume their web of point-to-point interfaces will sink a cloud migration. Wrong. SAP BTP API Management and event mesh tools wrap ugly flat-file feeds into modern REST or OData endpoints with throttling, monitoring, and token-based security. Over time you retire legacy schedulers and cron jobs, but you start by encapsulating them so cutover remains swift. Cloud scares some auditors, yet S/4HANA Cloud combined with Sapsol's blueprint usually raises your security posture: Micro-segmentation: every workload gets its own security group; lateral movement dies. every workload gets its own security group; lateral movement dies. Real-time anomaly detection: behavioural ML flags suspicious postings within 200 ms. behavioural ML flags suspicious postings within 200 ms. Immutable audit logs: blockchain-backed extensions guarantee line-item integrity. Cyber-insurance premiums have dropped up to 12 % for clients adopting this stack. Digital transformation fails when culture lags technology.

Gamified dashboards – real-time KPIs create friendly competition for fastest issue resolution. – real-time KPIs create friendly competition for fastest issue resolution. Upskill sprints – lunchtime 'prompt-engineering' sessions turn hesitant staff into AI power users. When people are excited, adoption soars—and ROI with it.

Hispanic Chamber of Commerce promotes local Hispanic businesses
SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV)– The Hispanic community has grown of the past few years, and the Metropolitan Savannah Area Hispanic Chamber of Commerce president said it will continue to grow. The Hispanic Chamber said it's their mission to provide a voice for the local Savannah businesses. They also don't only serve the Hispanic community, but also the non-Hispanic community by bridging the gap between them. 'The Hispanic Chamber is basically, people who don't know anything about Hispanics and people who know about Hispanics or are Hispanic and bringing them together,' Hispanic Chamber President Alfonso Ribot said. Ribot said that the diverse community is what the Savannah area needs, and the Hispanic businesses have something unique that everyone can enjoy. 'I know we're talking about some of the things that are happening out there in which businesses are closing, but one of the things that Hispanic businesses are doing is food,' Ribot said. 'Our culture, our way of treating people is appealing not just to Hispanics.' Ribot said Hispanic business owners are more prone to stick to the business because it's like a family and that business needs to be promoted. 'If you are non-Hispanic, Hispanic and you are able lease patronize Hispanic businesses and anyone that has that little sign on the door that says Hispanic Chamber of Commerce member, come in you're going to love it,' Ribot said. The Metropolitan Savannah Area Hispanic Chamber of Commerce said they welcome anyone to join the chamber. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
