Département du Calvados

Role in financing

The Département runs support schemes for investment and certain economic activities in its area. The catalogue linked here includes in particular grants for business property, tourist accommodation and local shops/services.

Territory covered

Calvados (14), subject to the scope specific to each scheme. Some property grants require the intermunicipal body to have signed an agreement with the Département.

Target audiences

Depending on the scheme: retail or craft businesses, SMEs/mid-sized companies, tourist accommodation operators and property investment project leaders.

Types of support

Investment grants and zero-interest loans, particularly for business property. Terms vary by scheme.

Points of caution

Several procedures require an application before work begins or before any expense is incurred. Submitting an application does not guarantee an award; decisions and payments remain subject to processing and, depending on the scheme, to the voted budget.

Before applying

Identify the appropriate grant, check the commune/EPCI, the size and activity of the business, eligible expenses and thresholds. For property grants, check whether the intermunicipal body has signed an agreement.

Timeline

For the zero-interest business property loan, the official page states that the application must precede the start of the project, in particular the signing of quotes or the acquisition of the property. For the shops/trades grant, the application must be submitted before work begins, and quotes must not be signed before submission.

Decision and payment

Theoretical eligibility or submission of an application does not constitute an award. Processing, the local authority's decision and budget availability determine the outcome of the application.
