FIRE crews are battling an intense blaze at a bacon factory at Kingaroy, northwest of Brisbane.
Emergency services were called to the fire at SunPork Fresh Foods’ Swickers bacon factory on Kingaroy-Barkers Creek Rd about 8am, where they found the factory engulfed in flames.
It is understood nearby homes and businesses were evacuated amid fears that the smoke could be carrying a toxic chemical.
Police have cordoned off the road and have urged motorists to avoid the area.
Paramedics remain on standby. It’s believed no one has been injured.
Local LNP Member for Nanango and Deputy Opposition Leader Deb Frecklington tweeted an image of the fire.
Federal Member for Maranoa David Littleproud has offered assistance to SunPork and its employees.
“This iconic business has played an integral part for employment in the South Burnett and Queensland’s pork processing for more than 50 years,” he said in a statement.

Silly! It is impossible to weaponize turkey bacon. I would be like using glow in the dark playdough to build a bomb.
