Work description
The University of Salford is looking to establish a fermentation-led brewery and bakery in the historic Old Fire Station in Albert Bentley Place on the Crescent, at the heart of what will become a new cultural quarter in Salford. The objective of this opportunity is to create a food and beverage 'anchor' as part of the placemaking and cultural development described in the £800 million City of Salford and University masterplan for the regeneration of the "historic" area around the University campus. Consumer interest for a wide range of high-quality beers, with genuine local provenance, is thriving in Manchester and across the North West. In order to support success in the UK small brewing industry, there is a need to balance the positive opportunities created by consumer trends with the need to innovate in the industry. Inspired by the Salfordian brewer James Joule, we propose to create a successful microbrewery that integrates all aspects of the university: student experience, research and innovation whilst producing a high quality, commercially available product. The brewing facility will sit alongside an artisan, craft bakery which produces naturally leavened bread. The facility will operate as one entity.
