Developments: 2. On the night of September 4, a large-scale fire broke out at the Ceagesp warehouse in the Vila Leopoldina district of São Paulo. The blaze affected the MFE-A pavilion, an area used for the commercialization of perishable goods. Sixteen fire department vehicles were deployed to combat the flames, which were extinguished by the following morning. While no injuries were reported, the fire caused extensive structural damage to the block of warehouses and destroyed at least 320 boxes. The Wholesale Fruit Trade Union of the State of São Paulo (Scaf) estimated that approximately 80 truckloads of merchandise, including various fruits, may have been lost. Recent reports indicate the fire primarily impacted businesses specializing in fruit, such as watermelons, as well as restaurants and packaging stores. Individual merchants have reported devastating financial losses, with some estimating stock losses alone at R$ 300,000. The Civil Defense has issued a temporary interdiction order for the area due to significant structural damage, including twisted metal frameworks. While the affected pavilion remains isolated for forensic investigation and structural assessment, the broader terminal remains open to minimize disruptions to the city’s food supply. Ceagesp is currently in discussions with a commission of merchants to establish emergency measures and alternative spaces to maintain operations. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-06: Ceagesp fire destroys 320 merchant boxes in São Paulo A major fire at the Ceagesp wholesale market in São Paulo destroyed 320 fruit merchant boxes, causing significant structural damage and massive financial losses, though no injuries were reported. 14 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/ceagesp-warehouse-fire-destroys-320-boxes-in-so-paulo ### 2026-08-23: São Paulo warehouse fire destroys approximately 15 vehicles A major fire at a recycling warehouse in São Paulo destroyed approximately 15 vehicles, including the car of laboratory assistant Josmar Moraes, who is now receiving social media support. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/so-paulo-warehouse-fire-destroys-approximately-15-vehicles --- Cite as: Ceagesp warehouse fire in São Paulo.
