Investment Support
The catalogue indicates a minimum threshold of €4,000 excluding VAT. Outside ACCOR, it mentions 30% capped at €3,000 without a hire and 40% capped at €4,000 with a hire. The ACCOR scheme and its territorial rules should be checked with the local authority and the Grand Est Region.
A retail or craft micro-business investing in the Ardennes Thiérache territory can look at this aid for equipment, tools, certain commercial vehicles or embellishment works. The catalogue scale varies depending on whether a job is created and on possible eligibility for the regional ACCOR scheme; the municipality where the business is located and whether it has a shopfront can therefore change the route.
