There is an estimated 3000 industrial/factory fires in the US every year. That's like 8 factory fires every day.

The scale of the fire is important too. Most of them are very small and usually handled by the suppression systems or people in the warehouse/factory. They still need to be reported and investigated for insurance purposes though.
