CHARLOTTE — Club West’s production and office facility near Camp North End sold for $6.65 million as the brewery scales back distribution operations and shifts toward a smaller production footprint.
Axios Charlotte reported that West Twenty Fourth LLC, an entity tied to the brewery’s prior ownership, sold the facility to Summit Avenue West 24th LLC on Nov. 4. The buyer is tied to Charlotte real estate firm Browder Brown.
An official Mecklenburg County parcel summary identifies the industrial property at 401 W. 24th St. as a 2.48-acre site. The record shows West Twenty Fourth LLC acquired it for $5.2 million in October 2024.
The new $6.65 million transfer price is $1.45 million above the prior recorded purchase price. That difference does not establish a gain to the seller because the parcel record does not account for financing, improvements or transaction costs.
The Charlotte Observer reported, in a version republished by AOL, that the sale is part of Club West’s restructuring. The brewery is reducing production capacity and moving toward a smaller facility while the parties discuss a temporary leaseback to maintain operations as equipment is removed or sold.
Browder Brown has assembled other property around the site. The buyer told both news outlets there are no immediate redevelopment plans, though the parcel adds access to West 24th Street and the building could be renovated. Axios reported that Browder is also talking with another local brewery that could use the existing equipment.
The completed sale separates Club West’s South End taproom-centered business from a larger production property that once supported wider distribution. It also gives a local developer control of an industrial parcel within a broader land assembly near Camp North End, leaving both the brewery’s smaller production plan and the site’s longer-term use to be determined.
