A long-standing company has moved into new premises just one month after a fire destroyed its previous unit in Burnham.
Impamark Prestige Merchandise has announced that it has moved into new offices at Unit 6, Dammerwick Farm, after a fire left its previous unit in ruins.
The blaze broke out in a neighbouring unit at Dammerwick Farm, Burnham, on Friday, January 24.
Fire crews worked to surround the blaze, with residents nearby warned to keep all windows and doors shut due to “a lot of smoke coming from the scene”.
A total of ten crews from across Essex spent almost 24 hours helping to extinguish the fire.

Despite the disruption, the company, with the support of its landlords, Strutt and Parker, was able to minimise the impact.
The new office space was transformed in record time, enabling the team to return to full operations on schedule.
In a statement, managing director Nicky Crisp said: “I have been super impressed by the ability of our team to adapt to this very challenging situation.
“We have had virtually no downtime and have been working together to move as quickly as possible into our new premises.
“I would like to thank Strutt and Parker, our landlords, who have assisted us to minimise our time without an office to just over one month.
“In that time our new offices have been transformed ready for us to move into on the same estate which has also been badly affected by the fire.”
Nicky also remarked on the “humbling” outpouring of support from peers, clients, and partners in the promotional merchandise industry.
She added: “In addition, our industry has been truly amazing and we have received so many offers of support and help which has been truly humbling.
“Finally, our clients who have been contacting us daily asking how we are and sending best wishes.
“We are so happy to be back to normal operations at Unit 6 Dammerwick Farm and look forward to working with you in the very near future.”
Impamark Prestige Merchandise would like to extend heartfelt thanks to everyone who has offered assistance, well wishes, and support during this time.
