Business Location Support Programs

Tsuruga City has established incentive programs to support business location and actively promotes corporate establishment within the city.
By combining incentive programs from the national government, the Electric Power Development Area Promotion Center (F Subsidy), Fukui Prefecture, and Tsuruga City, it is possible to significantly reduce the amount of investment required.
To reduce the burden of setting up a business, subsidies are available for 50% of office rent and the cost of purchasing or leasing office equipment, as well as 100% coverage of communication line usage fees.

Up to 24 million yen in subsidies are available to cover office establishment costs.
