As a result of the fire that broke out in the Armavir village branch of Proshyan Brandy Factory, the directors of this branch and of the welding company have died. Armen Gasparyan, the founding owner of this factory, said this in a conversation with journalists Tuesday.

He said the factory has about 200 employees.

As for the four injured, Gasparyan stated that they had moderate-degree burns and were taken to Yerevan. "The factory is not working at the moment; we have turned the power off. There was a lot of procurement taking place, now everything has stopped; we have moved the grapes to our other branch," he said.
