LEADER Pays Graylois: structuring local economic sectors
The action supports the structuring and promotion of economic sectors rooted in local resources and know-how. It may involve cooperation between producers, craftspeople, businesses and public partners, as well as collective quality or promotion schemes. Action sheet 2 of the Pays Graylois specifies the costs and criteria to be met.
In the Pays Graylois, this LEADER action is for projects that structure a sector around local resources, products or know-how. It may involve networking players, a collective strategy, pooling tools or promoting products and skills. To be convincing, the application must show how the action will benefit several players and strengthen the sector over time.

Frequently asked questions
Can a project led by a single company be suitable?
