Puy-de-Dôme: business liquidations rise by 30%, a situation considered worrying
Published
In the Puy-de-Dôme department, the number of business liquidations has increased sharply. According to information published by the regional daily newspaper La Montagne, this rise reaches 30%. The newspaper considers that the local economic situation is becoming alarming.
A business liquidation is a judicial procedure. It occurs when a company can no longer pay its debts and must cease its activity. In this case, the company's assets are sold in order to repay, as far as possible, its creditors, that is to say the people or organisations to whom it owes money. This procedure has direct consequences for employees, who often lose their jobs, and for the company's suppliers and customers.
The increase therefore affects not only business owners, but also the residents of the region. The available information does not detail all the causes of this rise, nor the business sectors most affected. It therefore remains difficult to precisely measure the extent of the crisis in each field.
This trend is worrying economic players in the department. such a significant rise in liquidations can affect local employment and business confidence. The coming months will show whether this trend is confirmed or whether it stabilises.
