TRC Synergy Berhad

TRC Synergy Berhad (TRCS) is a Malaysian investment holding company listed on the Main Board of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad since 2002. The group's history can be traced back to 1984, when TRC Construction Sdn. Bhd. (formerly Trans Resources Corporation Sdn. Bhd.) was formed as a specialist construction company. It began as a small-time contractor undertaking road, infrastructure, and building works for the public sector, aiming to meet the growing demand for high-calibre Bumiputra contractors supporting Malaysia's rapid economic growth. Over more than three decades, TRC has established a solid foothold in the Malaysian construction industry. The group's principal activities are construction and engineering, property development, and hospitality. Its construction division, led by Trans Resources Corporation Sdn Bhd as the main operating company, has undertaken major infrastructure and building projects including rail infrastructure (LRT, MRT), highways and roads, buildings, airport terminals, runways, port facilities, submarine bases, and bridges. Notable completed projects include the Labuan Airport upgrade, the new railway link from South Port to West Port at Pulau Indah, the new prison complex in Bentong, Pahang, runway extension at Kuala Terengganu Airport, a new submarine base for the Royal Malaysian Navy at Teluk Sepangar, Sabah, the UniKL campus in Pasir Gudang, Johor Bahru, the Maritime Enforcement Agency training institute in Kuantan, Pahang, the Brunei International Airport modernisation, and the Kelana Jaya LRT line extension. Ongoing projects include the Serdang depot for MRT Line 2, the Johan Setia depot for LRT Line 3, a road works package for the Pan Borneo Highway Sarawak, and a construction contract for an integrated property development in Putrajaya. In property development, the group has strengthened its market presence in Malaysia through a Joint Land Development Agreement (JLDA) with Syarikat Prasarana Negara Bhd to initiate its first Transit Oriented Development (TOD) project in Selangor, at the Ara Damansara LRT station. Regionally, the group has expanded into property development, homebuilding, and hospitality in Australia, including a fully owned "Element by Westin" hotel in Melbourne operated by Marriott International, which commenced business in June 2019. The group is headquartered in Ampang, Selangor, and has a staff strength of over 700 to over 1,000 dedicated employees (sources vary). Its founder and Group Managing Director, Tan Sri Dato' Sri Sufri Bin Hj Mohd Zin, is described as the driving force behind its success and a stalwart of the Malaysian construction industry. The group's motto is "As one with the nation." In 2011, it established Yayasan TRC, a charitable foundation providing assistance to eligible employees and their families, as well as supporting community and welfare causes. TRC celebrated its 35th anniversary in July 2019.

The history of TRC Synergy Berhad can be traced back to 1984, when TRC Construction Sdn. Bhd. (formerly known as Trans Resources Corporation Sdn. Bhd.) was formed as a specialist construction company. It began as a small-time contractor undertaking road, infrastructure, and building works for the public sector, aiming to meet the growing demand for high-calibre Bumiputra contractors to support Malaysia's rapid economic growth. Over the years, the group grew by leaps and bounds and established a solid foothold in the Malaysian construction industry. A major milestone was the successful listing of its holding company, TRC Synergy Berhad, on the Main Board of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad in 2002. This was seen as a strong testament to the group's performance, execution capability, and proven track record. In 2011, the group set up Yayasan TRC, a charitable foundation with objectives of providing assistance to eligible employees and their family members in need, including educational equipment, scholarships, and donations. The foundation also supports community, welfare, and charitable organizations, NGOs, and associations as part of the group's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programmes. The group expanded its strategic presence beyond Malaysia, exporting its know-how, experience, and expertise to Brunei Darussalam. To build diversified revenue streams, it strengthened its market presence in Malaysian property development through a Joint Land Development Agreement (JLDA) with Syarikat Prasarana Negara Bhd to initiate its first Transit Oriented Development (TOD) project in Selangor, at the Ara Damansara LRT station. Regionally, the group successfully ventured into property development, homebuilding, and hospitality in Australia, with a fully owned "Element by Westin" hotel in Melbourne, operated by Marriott International, commencing business in June 2019. In July 2019, TRC celebrated its 35th anniversary, marking over three decades of achievements.
