Toronto Research Chemicals, TRC, was founded in 1982 by Dr. David Dime to manufacture and supply researchers in the biomedical fields with specialized complex organic small molecules that were not commercially available. In 1983, the company was incorporated in Ontario as Toronto Research Chemicals Inc. It was initially located at the University of Toronto. As the business expanded, larger facilities were required to accommodate the growth.

Today, Toronto Research Chemicals Inc. employs about 250 full time staff, of which approximately 140 are PHD's, operating in a 65,000 square foot facility. TRC, currently manufactures and distributes in excess of 95,000 products to more than 95 countries. In addition, TRC has also acquired Synfine Research, in Richmond Hill, Canada with 22,000 square feet of manufacturing space as well as full analytical capabilities including an ISO 9001 registration.
