maltatoday | SUNDAY • 3 JULY 2022 13 COMMERCIAL BIKEWORLD is a new outlet in Zeb- bug offering high quality products for bikes and commuters alike. Its objec- tive is to keep clients mobile with as minimal an environmental impact as possible. And the company has made it its mission to raise awareness and to promote the adoption of new electric transport for a better Malta. Imagine the time commuters could save on their daily journeys if they had to switch to a motorbike, or scooter, and zip through traffic. BikeWorld ap- preciates that change is not easy, and there are many questions, especially by those who never rode a two-wheel vehicle before. "At Bikeworld we want to give the best product to our customers and with this philosophy in mind we have ventured to promote only the best and renowned brands," Etienne Attard, General Manager of BikeWorld, said. "Our team is dedicated to offer servic- es and support to help you make the right choice." The outlet features two leading electric scooter brands: Silence and TiSTO. These are the optimal solu- tion for individuals and companies seeking a practical, low running cost, high-quality mode of transport. The scooters are powered by a port- able lithium-ion battery, which can be charged via any 240-volt socket (be- ing a 3-pin socket at home or at the office). These modern electric scooters offer a new, emission-free, driving experi- ence. Silence is a specialist in the produc- tion of electric vehicles in Europe and the only one to manufacture its own batteries. Their e-scooters driving ex- perience is just like any regular scoot- er: simple twist-and- go throttle, and front and rear brake levers. TiSTO offers a range of electric scooters equipped with many modern features such as Bluetooth and an op- tional keyless start. They offer scoot- ers in a variety of colours and can be further customised to our clients' wants. Focusing on safety, quality, value, and sustainability, the new Bikeworld showroom is committed to delivering the latest innovations from leading brands worldwide. "Our products are designed to meet the uncompromising demands for the highest standard of protection and comfort on any trip you take," Attard said. "We have selected a range of hel- mets and apparel to make riding a mo- torbike safer and more secure." The outlet also stocks SMK and SPIDI apparel, including superior quality helmets, clothing, and acces- sories for all bikers.

Calamatta Cuschieri pi- oneered the Maltese fi- nancial services industry as early as 1971 and was a founding member of the Malta Stock Exchange, which today offers a wide range of financial services. Set up in 1971 by Alfred Calamatta under the name of A. Calamatta & Partners, Calamatta Cuschieri was born in 1992 following Alex Cuschieri's official partner- ship after several years of collaboration. This would eventually become CC Fi- nance Group. Since its inception as a stockbroking firm, the company has continued to evolve and modernise over the years, building on its strong heritage. While it continues to offer clients advice on investments in bonds, funds and shares, it has also diversified its busi- ness to include fund ad- ministration, wealth man- agement, life insurance and pensions services. The company's first inroad into financial technology came in 2004 when it started developing the proprietary software for what would become its award-winning proprietary trading plat- form, CC Trader, which went online in 2011, and has been recently rebranded as Moneybase Invest. This April, CC Group launched Moneybase, Mal- ta's first digital payments platform. The result of a €10 million investment which further consolidates CC Group's reputation in financial services and fin- tech innovation. Money- base users can benefit from an integrated app that offers investments, SEPA and per- son-to-person payments, as well as cards more informa- tion is available on www. moneybase.com From its humble begin- nings, Calamatta Cuschie- ri now employs 200 staff members, manages and administers more than €2 billion in assets, and serves over 30 thousand clients.

PARAGON, a range of single botanic cordials created for bartenders, which was launched by Monin in collabora- tion with Alex Kratena, internation- ally renowned bartender and P(OUR) co-founder is now available in Malta. Paragon seeks to protect and pro- mote rare botanical varieties from remote areas around the world, high- lighting unknown aromatic essences and making them available for those who appreciate exceptional flavours for use in cocktails. Created as a series of 'botan- ical chapters' which will become an encyclopedic collection of ingredients for bartenders, the first chapter focuses on pepper and pepper berries. Paragon explored every continent and encoun- tered remote populations cultivating species for generations to source origi- nal varieties with distinctive flavours. The result is the Pepper Collection, comprising three variants: White Penja Pepper from Cameroon; Ru Berry from Ethiopia; and Timur Berry from Nepal, each presented in a 48.5cl bottle as a single botanic cordial. To extract the complex flavours of each pepper ingredient Paragon uses a mix of technologies, including the unique use of supercritical CO2, along with infusion and alcoholate (distilla- tion). Each technique extracts a particular element of the ingredients' flavour pro- file, allowing for the recreation of the complete flavour spectrum. To create the cordials, naturally occurring and previously undiscovered gluconic acid which is found in Cameroonian Oku honey is used as a base, and has been chosen for its property of enhancing long lasting flavours without adding any additional tasting notes. Alex Kratena, who travelled with the Paragon team to source ingredients in Cameroon before consulting on the production of the cordials comments, "Paragron is a new generation of cor- dials and they bring a range of rare and daring new flavours to the repertoire of any bartender." Paragon is imported, marketed and distributed by Farsons Beverage Im- ports Company (FBIC) Limited. www. paragoncordial.com BikeWorld offers a new solution for urban mobility Calamatta Cuschieri celebrates 50th anniversary Paragon, single botanical cordials for bartenders now available in Malta
