Vape firm Dinner Lady has told customers that disruption to orders will be minimal, after its e-liquid factory on Shadsworth Business Park in Blackburn caught fire on Monday evening.
No one was harmed during the blaze, which was attended by 10 fire engines and required the use of an aerial ladder platform and stinger to be brought under control.
Dinner Lady has issued the following statement:
“Following the fire at Dinner Lady’s UK e-liquid manufacturing operation, we would like to re-assure our customers that our business operation is open and continuing as usual.
“Most importantly, we can report that no one was hurt in the fire and that all our members are safe and well, thanks to the actions of our head-quarters team and the local fire and emergency rescue teams.
“As one the world’s leading e-liquid brands, Dinner Lady has a network of established manufacturing facilities located across multiple international centres which are in constant use and operation to support our UK facility.
“Currently, our team are engaged in moving production which would have been made in the UK to our other facilities, to minimise any potential disruption which may occur as a result of the fire.
“We anticipate that the majority of customers will not experience any change to their scheduled orders however some customers may experience
interruption, and we will work with those impacted to ensure any disruption is mitigated efficiently. We are continuing to welcome new orders through our usual process.
“We are deeply moved by the many messages of support we have received overnight and we hope to be in touch with you very soon once we have visibility of the impacts of the incident.”
