Fire broke out at Elloree Gin Co, located at Orangeburg County, on January 9, 2007 during noon due to high winds. It caused losses worth over $5,00,000.

A tin seed warehouse at the cotton gin was partially blown by winds, following which electrical wires ignited a spark. This spark soon turned into a huge blaze.

A staff member immediately called the fire department. Fire tenders rushed to the spot and prevented burning of cotton and its seeds in all warehouses of Elloree gin.
