Aid for local shops in Strasbourg: up to €30,000
Aid for local shops in Strasbourg: up to €30,000. The aim is to support local shops located in village and town centres. Investment may concern interior or exterior fit-out of the sales outlet and equipment linked to the activity. Check the accepted APE activity code, the exact address against the listed local centres and the retail balance criteria. The criteria and amounts should be compared with the rules in force.
The Eurométropole de Strasbourg’s 2026 specifications provide direct aid for retailers, craftspeople, café owners and restaurateurs located in a local centre. Projects must support the local retail balance and concern notably fitting out premises or buying equipment. The document indicates 50% for certain projects below €15,000 excluding VAT, 20% with a cap of €20,000 above that, and up to 30% with a cap of €30,000 for eco-responsible projects. Eligibility also depends on the local centre, the activity and how useful the project is for the local offer.
