This will allow the FOI to provide added value services to any of its members interested in sourcing detailed information on companies in over 70 countries worldwide.

Mr Borg thanked BC Marketing Ltd, local representatives of Kompass, for the service being provided and said he firmly believed that “this step is in line with the federation’s continuing efforts to provide Maltese enterprise with a range of services designed to support their growth and prosperity, not only locally but, more importantly, internationally. The internationalisation of companies can be achieved by using systems that not only provide sourcing opportunities but also create a means of exposing companies’ products and services to a truly worldwide business audience.”

This arrangement means FOI members have access to limited searches on the Kompass database by visiting the home page of the FOI website www.foi.org.mt and clicking on the company searches section, or through the Kompass website http://www.kompass.com). Members can now also have full access to the Kompass database by booking an appointment with the FOI Secretariat (tel: 2123-4428, 2122-2074) and visiting the FOI offices.

Access to the Kompass on-line company directory will enable FOI members to benefit from reliable and up-to-date information. Mr Borg took the opportunity to encourage companies to be listed in the database of Kompass International through the local representative office (tel: 2131-6633) in order to gain from the business opportunities that such a system provides.
