Kaçkar Fire Department teams intervened in the fire, which broke out around 01:15, while extinguishing efforts were carried out with difficulty due to the tea dust smoldering from within.
Due to the progression of the fine dust fire in the interior sections of the factory, dense smoke formed around Yavuz Selim Neighborhood, Deniz Neighborhood, and Atatürk Street.
While there were no casualties or injuries in the incident, the factory sustained material damage.
