Factory fire in Pathum Thani

A fire broke out at a drinks factory operated by Oishi Trading Co in Khlong Luang district, Pathum Thani, on Monday morning. It caused significant damage.

There were no reports of casualties and Oishi Group said the blaze would not affect deliveries.

The fire broke out at about 7am, sending workers fleeing to safety.

It was believed to have started at an electricity control box and then spread rapidly through the storage areas, which were filled with cardboard boxes.

Crews from at least 10 fire engines battled the blaze. It took them about an hour to bring the fire under control. Estimates of the damage were still being prepared and an investigation was underway into the cause.

Oishi Group insisted that the fire would not affect production or deliveries because it had other plants in Chon Buri and Saraburi provinces.
