Barberry acquired the site last year, exchanging contracts within two weeks of instructing solicitors.
Development director Jon Robinson said: "We are very grateful to gain the full support of Birmingham City Council's planning committee and we are excited to begin another outstanding speculative warehouse development.
"Our development of a best-in-class unit will help to address the ongoing shortage of new, high-quality, mid-box industrial and logistics accommodation in the West Midlands.
"Our building is designed to enable businesses to reduce their carbon footprint and deliver financial savings across their operations."
Current occupiers on Quinton Business Park include Secretary of State for Levelling Up Housing and Communities, Wates Construction and Highways Agency.
Savills and M1 Agency are the retained agents acting for Barberry.
