French New Companies, Sales & Insolvencies (BODACC)

Get the official announcements of the French company bulletin (BODACC) as clean data: new companies, business sales with their price, insolvency proceedings, registrations, changes, deregistrations and account filings — filtered by department, keywords and dates.

Schedule it daily in alert mode and receive only the announcements you have not received yet.

What can you do with it?

• 🆕 Prospect new companies first. Every new company needs an accountant, a bank, insurance, a website, equipment… Get them the day their creation is published, with their activity and address.
• 💼 Spot business sales. Shops, restaurants and companies changing hands, with the sale price — for brokers, franchise networks, investors and suppliers.
• ⚠️ Monitor risk. Be alerted when a customer, supplier or competitor enters insolvency proceedings (safeguard, receivership, liquidation).
• 📊 Market studies. How many companies are created per sector and department? Pull months of history.

Pricing

Pay per announcement returned. In alert mode you only pay for new announcements. Set a maximum cost per run and the Actor stops exactly there.

FAQ

Why are sole traders excluded by default? Their announcements are about individuals (names, sometimes personal insolvency). For B2B use and GDPR, only companies are returned unless you turn companiesOnly off — you are then responsible for GDPR-compliant use.

Why is the sale price sometimes missing? Some announcements do not state it, or state it in a way that cannot be read reliably; the Actor never guesses.

Something is wrong? Open an issue with your run link — it will be fixed quickly.
