Business model & group
Activity timeline as printed by the company2011-12Company disclosed
The about page prints a dated history: company founded 2011-12; exclusive import of R-Biopharm products 2011-12 to 2019-20; import of Trilogy and FAPAS products; exclusive import of AOKIN AG products from 2019-20 to the present; specialist technical services, meaning consultancy and training, to food-industry laboratories from 2020-21; import of Reagecon products as authorised representative and provision of inter-laboratory comparisons in food and animal-feed contaminants from 2021-22; and provision of proficiency testing in contaminants of human and animal food, agricultural inputs, mineral and metallurgical samples, water and wastewater, microbiology, and cosmetics from 2022-23. The Trilogy and FAPAS entry is printed with its year range reversed, as 2019-20 to 2011-12; the timeline is reproduced as printed, and Tehran Index reads that entry as the same 2011-12 to 2019-20 window as the line above it, without asserting it. Iranian years on this timeline convert as 2011-12 = 2011-12, 2019-20 = 2019-20, 2020-21 = 2020-21, 2021-22 = 2021-22, 2022-23 = 2022-23.
Shimidanan Vira about page, history section (virachemists.com/about-us) ↗ · retrieved 2026-09-16The reversed year range is a typographic fault on the source page rather than a substantive dispute, so it is noted inside the fact rather than raised as a conflicting row.

Stated gaps are part of the record: in an opaque market, knowing what is NOT publicly established is as decision-relevant as what is.
