owner-managed
Although I find both "self-managed" and "independently run" to be a very suitable answers in a general context, "owner-managed" places emphasis on the economic distinction between ownership and management. In this case the owner(s) and manager(s) are one and the same.
Without greater context, it is the best I can offer.

Another possibility:
\"run on one\'s own\"
More context would be of use.
IMO \"en propre\" here means \"100% owned by...\" but by whom??
