Open or take over a business in France
In our country, each year, around 40,000 businesses change hands. In 2015, the average value of a business was almost $ 180,000. However, large variations are observed depending on the region and the nature of the trade. It takes around $ 56,000 on average for a hairdressing salon and over $ 500,000 for an optical store!
Trade: the procedure to follow to get started
To take over or start a business is a dream for many. An exciting mission, which is often synonymous with a change of life. But to give yourself every chance of succeeding in your project, it is essential to prepare it sufficiently in advance. First, by carrying out a market study , both in the chosen sector and in its geographical area. Study more specifically which direct competitors are established, the costs and of course, the financial package .
The choice of the trade name as well as the sign is also of great importance. Finally, find out about the taxation applicable to trade and the various formalities to be completed (choice of status, acquisition of a license, etc.).

Finance the purchase of a business
Have you found the business that meets all your criteria, particularly in terms of location and budget? To acquire it, you must have a personal contribution . It can constitute both savings or even state aid of the ARCE type. This contribution, about 20% of the total cost of the project, will then be supplemented by a bank loan.
Another possible option, seller's credit, often offered when selling a business or in activities with non-perishable stock (garage, textiles, hardware, etc.). The seller's credit solution results from a negotiation with the assignor. The duration of this type of loan is generally 1 to 3 years and cannot exceed 50% of the sale price.
Trade: financing your need for growth
Like any business, a business also needs financing to support its growth . Its material and immaterial needs are important. Over the years, a business may in particular need renovation, aesthetics, energy or even upgrading. Financial support may also be necessary in the event of a problem with the payment of charges such as taxes or salaries, in particular in the event of a cash flow mismatch. At the same time, in order to develop, a business may also need to innovate by launching, for example, an e-commerce site, which complements its physical store.
Trade: bank loans are difficult to obtain
Managers of SMEs, very small businesses as well as traders have observed in recent years that their banking partners are more difficult to convince, due to the crisis! According to the KPMG / CGPME barometer, 25% of companies have difficulty obtaining a bank loan . Small and medium-sized enterprises are the most penalized here. In addition, many SMEs state that they are faced with the reduction of loans or cash flow facilities, but also with the lengthening of the deadlines for accepting applications.
