A fire broke out at a ready-made garment factory located in Gazipur Sadar upazila on Saturday morning.
The flames broke out at the dyeing warehouse of Swadhin Dyeing, Knitting and Composite Limited in the Konabari BSCIC area around 9am, officials said.
Gazipur Fire Service and Civil Defense Deputy Assistant Director Akhtaruzzaman Liton said the flames soon spread to the rest of the factory.
Six fire fighting units from Gazipur, Kaliakoir and Tongi brought the flames under control after nearly one hour of efforts around 10:30am, he said.
No casualties were reported. However, neither the reason behind the fire nor the losses incurred could not be ascertained in primary reports.
Building safety has been an issue in Bangladesh after the devastating fire at Tazreen Fashions Limited and the collapse of Rana Plaza.
