History
The club was founded as CSCA Buiucani on 25 September 1997. In July 2011, the club became FC Dacia Chișinău's reserve team and changed its name to Dacia-2 Buiucani. This cooperation lasted until March 2018, when Dacia Chișinău withdrew from the Moldovan National Division. Dacia Buiucani then started anew in the third tier of Moldovan football. They achieved two consecutive promotions and finished in 5th place in their first season in the top division. In June 2021, Dacia Buiucani were voluntarily relegated from the Moldovan National Division due to financial reasons. Dacia Buiucani returned to the Super Liga in seasons 2022-2023 and has since been a regular participant in the league.
