REE was established in 1977, originally as a state-owned Refrigeration Electrical Engineering enterprise. In 1993, the company was privatized and officially traded its first shares on July 28, 2000. Through 21 capital increases, REE has expanded its charter capital from 150 billion VND (in 2000) to over 3,100 billion VND currently. The company operates in four main business segments: M&E construction services, domestic electrical business under the Reetech brand, commercial office development, and investment in electrical and water infrastructure and renewable energy projects.
According to a Vietcombank representative, REE’s development directions are all essential sectors of life and are also priority credit growth areas for Vietcombank. Since 2017, the bank has approached and assessed many projects in the renewable energy sector and provided credit for solar power.
REE is also an important partner accompanying the bank in many fields, contributing to the development of the economy. Based on the cooperation between Vietcombank and REE, the bank currently has transactions with 14 member units within REE.
