“We are very happy to welcome Anchovy as the newest member of AMIN,” said Hans van Eemeren, President of AMIN Worldwide, EMEA region and Partner of Intracto in Belgium.

“We look forward to exploring Anchovy’s influence and client base in Malta and in turn assisting them in expanding their global portfolio of clients and partners,” Mr van Eemeren added.

Anchovy says that its services focus on discovering client problems, developing a strategy and targeting the problem and evaluating the results achieved. 

“Joining AMIN is a great step forward for us. Being part of AMIN is key to reaching our goals of approaching a broader range of clients while expanding our presence internationally and increasing our expertise to existing partners/clients,” said Benji Borg, Cofounder of Anchovy.

“We are really excited to be able to tap into AMIN’s extensive knowledge base of global market insights. Their insights will take Anchovy to a whole new level,” Mr Borg added.

Pursuant to an extraordinary general meeting held on 22 July, Anchovy announced the “resignation of PwC Malta from the office of auditors” with immediate effect, “resulting from the economics of the engagement as discussed with management, [the decision] is duly ratified and approved,” the public announcement says.

Anchovy will be appointing Mazars Malta Ltd as auditors of the company up until the next annual general meeting “at which the accounts for the current year are laid”, the announcement adds.

Anchovy told Business Malta that the company “has nothing further to add to the announcement”.

The company announcement is available for public view on the official webpage of the Malta Stock Exchange.

Founded in late 2016 and launched in early 2017, Fetch It was launched aiming to revolutionise the transportation of goods and products in Malta. 

“Our key contributions came purely through a marketing and tech focus, arguably elements which were mostly needed to get the company off the ground. We realised we had less to contribute in terms of the ongoing operational endeavours of the company, which were now naturally the central focus of this business model,” said Zak Borg.  

As Anchovy was going through the arduous process of going public on the Malta Stock Exchange (MSE), the Borg brothers say they felt it was time to part ways with Fetch It. 

“It was not a case of pulling out because we did not believe in the business. We believe in Fetch It wholeheartedly and we still do to this day. We as Anchovy simply felt that we could not continue investing our time in this venture and could no longer contribute as profoundly as we did to the business, given its stage,” added Zak Borg. 

“While it was really sad to part ways with such a great business, it also proved a great learning curve for us, being our first exit so to speak. The emotional connection to something you helped build is incredibly strong, so making this decision was especially tough,” continued Benji Borg.
