Fast-Track Your Business Success with a Shelf Company

Dutch Merchants (1939) by Fritz Wagner

Shelf companies, also known as aged companies, are corporations that have been created and left "on the shelf" to age. This means they have no activity or assets until they are purchased. The primary advantage of acquiring a shelf company is the ability to quickly start a business operation. Here's a detailed look at how a shelf company could benefit you to start doing business in as little as 3 business days, the legality of using them, and considerations around business names and DBAs (Doing Business As).


Benefits of Using a Shelf Company

  1. Speed of Business Start-Up: Since the company already exists, the administrative process of starting a business is significantly shortened. You can bypass the time-consuming steps of incorporating a new entity, which can take weeks or even months, depending on the jurisdiction.
  2. Established Corporate History: An older company might appear more trustworthy to clients and investors, as it shows longevity. This can be especially beneficial in industries where trust and experience are valued.
  3. Easier Access to Credit and Financing: Some financial institutions may be more inclined to lend to a company with a history, even if it's just on paper. An aged company can therefore potentially have an easier time securing business loans or credit lines.
  4. Immediate Contract Bidding: Certain contracts require businesses to have been in operation for a specific period. Owning an aged company can meet these criteria, allowing you to bid on contracts immediately.
  5. Quick International Expansion: For businesses looking to expand internationally, a shelf company can offer a fast track to establishing a presence in a new country, complying with local business regulations more swiftly.


Legal Framework

Shelf companies are a completely legal way to commence business operations. They are formed and sold by reputable firms specializing in corporate services, ensuring that they comply with local laws and regulations. However, it's important to conduct thorough due diligence to ensure that the shelf company has no hidden liabilities or past activities that could impact your business.


Business Names and DBA Registration

While a shelf company may come with a pre-existing name that might not align with your business vision, this issue can be easily addressed by registering a DBA (Doing Business As) name. A DBA allows you to conduct business under a different name than the officially registered corporate name. This process is generally straightforward and can be completed quickly, allowing you to brand your business as you see fit while still benefiting from the established corporate structure of the shelf company.


In summary, PECUNIAM LEX SAS is here to assist you in acquiring the shelf company that best suits your needs, ensuring a swift and efficient start to your business. Our expertise in navigating the legal and practical aspects of shelf companies means you can focus on what truly matters: growing your business. With the advantages of rapid setup, established corporate history, and easier access to financing at your fingertips, starting your entrepreneurial journey has never been easier. Let us help you unlock these benefits and guide you towards a successful business launch.
