Financing the construction or extension of business premises in Loire et Allier
The Loire et Allier aid targets the construction, acquisition or extension of professional buildings. The rules referenced in March 2026 announce a grant of 10% of eligible expenditure, capped at €10,000 per application, within the legal ceilings linked to economic zoning. Fit-out expenditure alone is listed as not eligible. The profile and the project must meet the local rules.
Do you want to build, acquire or extend business premises to house an activity or increase your business’s capacity? The Communauté de communes Loire et Allier lists a grant for businesses with fewer than 10 employees, with an announced rate of 10% and a cap of €10,000. However, the scheme excludes operations limited to simple fit-out: the nature of the property project is therefore decisive.

Who can apply
The catalogue targets retail, craft, industrial or service businesses with fewer than 10 employees located within the Communauté de communes Loire et Allier, subject to the detailed conditions of the rules. Check the headcount used, the activity and the location of the building; these criteria may determine access to the aid.
Eligibility conditions
Conditions listed: the detailed conditions are not sufficiently given in the catalogue. Amount and parameters: the catalogue indicates 10% of eligible expenditure, capped at €10,000, with combination rules and public aid ceilings. Intervention rules dated March 2026 are referenced; check their exact conditions before relying on the scale. Ask the reviewing department to confirm in writing the expenditure floor, rate and cap, exclusions, combination rules (including de minimis), any waiting period and the expected maintenance of activity or jobs. Any value missing from the catalogue remains to be confirmed and is not estimated here.
What the scheme covers
The rules listed cover the construction, acquisition or extension of buildings. Fit-out expenditure alone is excluded: a project limited to finishing or layout should therefore not be treated as eligible without another property component. The catalogue indicates 10% of eligible expenditure, up to €10,000 and within the applicable legal ceilings.
Amount and funding terms
A grant of 10% of eligible expenditure, up to €10,000 per application. The aid granted may not exceed the funding rates within the legal ceilings depending on economic zoning (regional aid zones, AFR, or outside AFR zones). The aid can be combined with that of the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté Region for the same project.
How to apply
1. Confirm that the project is located in the territory and the business’s headcount. 2. Check that the operation is indeed construction, acquisition or extension, not fit-out alone. 3. Prepare the quotes and ask the funder to calculate the eligible base according to zoning. 4. Have the financing plan and the application deadline checked before committing.
