The company was founded in 2005 by John DeMarco and his son, Robert DeMarco.[3][4] AgroChem leased production space in W. J. Grande Industrial Park[5] until purchasing five acres in the park in 2016 to build their current facility, which takes up 38,000 sq. ft.[6] The firm maintains warehouses in Wisconsin, Texas, California, and Canada.[7] The DeMarcos also own Biosan,[8] which produces peracetic acid as an alternative to chlorine bleach, and operates out of the same plant as AgroChem, Inc.[7]

International sales accounted for roughly 15 percent of overall sales in 2015.[7][14]
