What the scheme covers
Renovation of shopfronts, façades and signs; accessibility; professional equipment and interior fit-out. Works and expenditure improving the energy performance of the retail premises (insulation and heating) are particularly welcome. In a business takeover, buying the furniture or sign is not eligible — only new investment is. Not eligible: simple replacement of obsolete or depreciated equipment, unless it helps maintain a local activity or service; purchase of goodwill, retail premises or land to build business premises; labour costs for works carried out by the business for itself; purchases through lease with purchase option or leasing; display equipment (showroom) or building up stock; communication materials and intellectual services and consumables (brochures, flyers, business cards, etc.); consumables and small equipment (tablecloths, cutlery, work clothing, curlers, towels, brushes, bikes for a bike rental business, etc.); fit-out/equipment of premises adjoining the home without a separate customer entrance.
Amount and funding terms
A grant of 20% of eligible expenditure, up to €3,000. A 10% increase applies to energy performance works and expenditure on heating and ventilation (excluding ventilation alone) combined with controls, and on insulating the building’s opaque walls (excluding shop windows and glazing). The municipalities of the Communauté d’agglomération de l’Ouest Rhodanien may increase the grant for renovating the façade, shopfront, shop windows or sign by an additional 10%, capped at €1,000; the municipality’s contribution is allocated and paid directly by the municipality. There is a three-year waiting period between two aids. A business receiving this aid to renovate its retail premises, with subsidisable expenditure excluding VAT above €10,000, may apply for aid from the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region. The amount awarded depends on the review and the rules applicable to the application.
