At the start of 2021 when the Covid-19 pandemic is keeping businesses in economic uncertainty, the agglomeration community of Montluçon (Allier) first and foremost wishes to help revitalize trade.
Direct financial aid
Montluçon Community continues to offer aid for setting up and setting up a business amounting to 10,000 euros collected in two installments. They are aimed at people who wish to settle in Montlluçon or in one of the municipalities of the agglomeration community. To this can be added the aid of the department and the region, each of 10,000 euros.
The goal is to revive a dynamic and to support companies. On Boulevard de Courtais, there should be four or five movements, between creations and relocations of businesses. Our helpers are more of a supplement. Behind, the bankers must follow

“But aid shouldn’t just be financial. We are considering activities to attract people to the city center and to the shops, ”adds Frédéric Laporte.
With the aim of attracting customers to the stores, the cashback operation launched with the start-up Keetiz at the time of the end of the year celebrations will be relaunched with a second prize pool of 10,000 euros.
