Fire has completely destroyed a Coldstream business.

A blaze tore through Ironhorse Enterprises, which is located on Giles Drive, early Thursday morning.

The company makes promotional items and golf bags for motorcycles.

The shop was fully engulfed when crews arrived.

It took approximately five hours for them to put out the flames.

A Porsche Boxter with a full tank inside the shop and gas cylinders used for welding created extra fuel for the fire.

Approximately 500 golf bags stored away in the garage were also destroyed.

The blaze has forced owner Glen Taylor to delay the launch of his invention, a golf bag designed to attach to a motorcycle.

Taylor now hopes to release the product next year.

A cause will likely be undetermined though electrical has been ruled out.
