From the moment it's created, every company must have a registered office. It's actually the very first administrative step to take right at the start.
A company's registered office is like a main residence for an individual: it's their official administrative address. It determines the company's nationality, its country of taxation and the jurisdictions competent in the event of a dispute.
It is all the more important as it must appear on all your official documents: invoices, quotes, order forms, delivery notes, etc. French law allows entrepreneurs to use the services of domiciliation companies to separate the address of the registered office from their actual place of work.
Libourne is particularly appreciated by entrepreneurs because of its many assets in favor of entrepreneurship.
As the second most economically dynamic region in mainland France, Nouvelle-Aquitaine is a breeding ground for opportunities for many entrepreneurs.
With over 50,000 businesses created each year, the region has set up a complete toolkit to support entrepreneurs. Choosing a legal structure, financing, market research, etc., are all key steps that deserve quality support.
Regional aid is mainly focused on very small businesses and craft businesses. The "Entreprendre, la région à vos côtés" (Starting a business, the region by your side) program offers complete long-term support.
Start-ups receive specific support, from the incubation phase to deployment: Start-up Feasibility, Start-up Expertise, Start-up Pass, Start-up Seed / Acceleration and Start-up Innovation are all schemes available to you.
All business start-up assistance offered by the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region is available here.
Libourne is a very attractive city for many entrepreneurs, for several reasons. First, it's located near Bordeaux, while benefiting from less expensive real estate. It's part of the Arcachon-Bordeaux axis, a metropolitan area with over 1.25 million people!
Its attractiveness is well-established, thanks to the numerous headquarters of major companies already located in the area:
- Arena is a famous brand of swimwear and technical aquatic clothing.
- Botalo has been manufacturing leather boots for cod fishermen for over 150 years.
- Ceva Santé Animale is a leading manufacturer of plant health products.
- Fayat is a famous construction company.
Libourne is also home to the headquarters of the Libourne Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
The city is actively pursuing its urban and economic development thanks to the "Libourne 2025 La Confluente" plan. As a forward-thinking city, it plans to experiment with installing CO2-absorbing streetlights that use algae.
Finally, the city has its own local complementary currency (Local Economic Interest Currency) to promote the development of local businesses.
Choosing your registered office is the first decision you'll need to make when setting up your company. It's really important because it determines your company's nationality, the country where you'll pay taxes, and which authorities are responsible if there's a dispute.
Why do so many entrepreneurs choose a domiciliation company?
