Only craftspeople selling directly to private customers with a shop window are listed as eligible.

What the scheme covers
According to the guide, the calculation is based on the commercial rent excluding VAT (service charges excluded) or the loan repayment for the premises. Stock, equipment or works are not explicitly covered by this description: do not include them without written agreement. The aim is to help the shop get started, not to finance the whole investment.
Amount and funding terms
The official PDF guide dated 2025 indicates an aid calculated on the rent excluding VAT or the loan repayment: 30% in the first year, capped at €2,000; 15% in the second year, capped at €1,000; 7.5% in the third year, capped at €500. Service charges are excluded. Check that this scale still applies and which supporting documents are required.
How to apply
1. Check that the activity and the premises are within the Brioude Sud Auvergne perimeter. 2. Prepare the lease or loan agreement, registration, opening plan and proof of rent or loan repayment. 3. Consult the current aid guide and contact the economic development department. 4. Ask for confirmation of the caps, exclusions and when to apply before signing the lease or committing costs.
