Aid for maintaining shops in rural areas
The rules of the Commercial Revitalisation Plan indicate a grant of 30% of eligible costs, capped at €15,000 excluding VAT. The scheme targets local shops located in the area’s municipalities with fewer than 3,000 inhabitants, with specific rules for multi-activity and mobile shops. The official page presents this aid as one of the agglomeration’s retail schemes.
This aid aims to preserve local retail in Évreux Portes de Normandie’s rural municipalities by supporting the continuation, creation or takeover of a shop. It funds equipment investments or works linked to compliance and modernisation, rather than running costs.
