What support can be mobilized in the Département de la Dordogne to finance your project?

Role and schemes

The Département de la Dordogne has an official portal of procedures for businesses and publishes several sector-specific schemes: equipment investment aid for agri-food, timber and fishing businesses; agricultural investment aid (livestock, crop, short supply chain, structuring and water management projects); a film and audiovisual fund; and renewable heat in the Périgord for studies and works. The Capital OS catalogue already contains the aid for agri-food, timber and fishing businesses (ID 12029), which should be kept and enriched rather than duplicated.

Beneficiaries

Production, marketing or processing businesses in the agri-food, timber and fishing sectors according to the rules; farms and project developers in the targeted sectors; film and audiovisual stakeholders; eligible project owners for renewable heat projects. Each scheme has its own target group and rules.

Instruments

Equipment investment grants; sector-specific agricultural aid; support for film/audiovisual production; aid for renewable heat studies and works. Rates, caps, co-financing and cumulation rules must be checked in each official page; the business aid is linked to an agreement with the Région Nouvelle-Aquitaine.

Recommended approach

For an agri-food, timber or fishing business, consult the official guide and submit a letter of request before starting the program; the portal indicates a rate of 10 to 40% depending on cumulation and job creation. For agriculture, select the exact sector. For renewable heat, separate studies from works. For audiovisual, check the fund's specific criteria. Do not present all schemes as open or accessible to every sector.
