Lineage Cold Storage Fire Sparks Safety Questions
Description
A massive fire rages at a Lineage cold storage facility in Boyle Heights — part of the world’s largest food logistics network with 500 facilities across 19 countries. The blaze reignited, prompting a state of emergency as firefighters battle smoke that’s thankfully not toxic. Cal/OSHA launched an investigation on the same day, following a similar probe last year — and a sister site in Vernon was fined in December for safety plan failures. Founded in 2008 by two entrepreneurs with a mission to keep food fresh from farm to table, Lineage’s scale makes this incident a major concern — and the company remains silent on the latest developments.
