Award-winning local business, Wye Valley Brewery, have been able to improve their operations following the award of a Marches Building Investment Grant (MBIG).
This has been sourced from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), with the assistance of Herefordshire Council.
Marches Building Investment Grant (MBIG) funding of £100k from the ERDF has enabled Wye Valley Brewery to extend an existing building at the rear of their 9-acre site at Stoke Lacy, “providing much-needed additional storage at optimum temperatures and multi-level loading bays to maximise the brewery’s distribution of its products”.
The new facilities also allow "the consolidation of cask washing/filling operations and storage in one building, improving efficiency and safety".
The works have created five additional jobs so far.
Vernon Amor, Managing Director of Wye Valley Brewery, said: “We are delighted to have completed our latest significant investment at Wye Valley Brewery with assistance from the Marches Building Investment Grant Scheme."
