He said that the firefighters tightly handled the fire so that it couldn't engulf a nearby refueling station and a high-rise building.
The extent of the damages caused by the fire couldn't be known immediately, the fire service officer said.
Employees of the courier service suspected the fire might have originated from chemicals in the store room.
