Work has begun on the development, which will serve as the business' HQ and brewing facility. The site will also incorporate a pub-restaurant, retail shop, coffee roastery, offices and a visitor centre that will offer guided tours.
The site has been designed with sustainability in mind and has solar cells on the roof, solar shading, air source heating and cooling alongside a highly efficient modern brewing plant.
National designer and constructor of food and drink manufacturing facilities, Clegg Food Projects has been appointed as the principal contractor for the project.
John Moxon, business development director at Clegg Food Projects, said: "We're delighted to be working on such a major project for Wells & Co, particularly as the facility will become a flagship for the company.

"Alongside the construction works, we're also providing the mechanical and electrical services with a full-time site-based team to manage the project. Once the works have progressed to the appropriate stage, we'll also be overseeing and coordinating with the various suppliers and specialist brewing equipment installers to ensure everything runs smoothly.
"The brewing industry is doing really well at the moment and we've had a number of enquires within the sector. We're therefore delighted to be delivering Brewpoint and to see the project come to life."
Peter Wells, commercial director at Wells & Co, added: "The creation of our beautifully designed new home is a statement of confidence about our future direction as a company. Brewpoint will be capable of producing a range of beer styles that we could only have dreamed of ten years ago.
"Our new home and the growing investment in our managed pubs are reflective of our plans to meet the changing needs of the next generation of customers. In the last year alone we have added twelve pubs to our portfolio, while investing £3.5 million into enhancing our existing estate."
The facility is expected to be completed in early summer 2020.
