Rent aid
The aid targets retail projects that help revitalise the town and village centres of the Auxerrois territory. The catalogue indicates €500, but it should be confirmed whether this is a monthly cap, an amount per application or another limit. The activity, location, duration of support and timetable should be checked in the local rules.
Opening a shop in a town or village centre involves fixed costs from the first months, while turnover builds up gradually. The Communauté de l’Auxerrois has introduced rent aid to secure the set-up of new shops and help revitalise town and village centres.

Who can apply
The scheme targets retail project owners setting up in the town or village centres of the Communauté de l’Auxerrois. The criteria may depend on location, the nature of the activity, whether it is a start-up or takeover, the lease and the shop’s contribution to revitalising the area.
Eligibility conditions
The project must concern eligible commercial premises in a centre defined by the local authority. The lease, rent, set-up date and nature of the activity must meet local rules. Excluded activities, the duration of the aid and the supporting documents should be checked in the rules before signing the lease or before the support takes effect.
What the scheme covers
The aid covers part of the rent linked to the shop set-up, to reduce fixed costs during the start-up phase. It should not be confused with aid for works, the purchase of premises or financing stock. The period and rents taken into account depend on local conditions.
Amount and funding terms
The catalogue indicates an amount of €500, without sufficiently specifying the frequency or duration. Do not treat this amount as a guaranteed flat-rate sum. The total amount depends on the Auxerrois rules, the eligible rent, the period supported and the review of the application. Ask for written confirmation before including it in the cash-flow forecast.
How to apply
1. Check that the premises are located within an eligible perimeter. 2. Contact the Auxerrois retail department before signing the lease or starting the activity. 3. Prepare the lease, the rent amount, a description of the shop and the forecast. 4. Confirm the amount, frequency and duration of the aid. 5. Submit the application according to the timetable and with the documents requested.
Timeline
The application timetable and the duration of support are not confirmed by the catalogue figure alone. Contact the Communauté de l’Auxerrois to obtain the current conditions and check that the aid is still open.
