So although was state assigned to owned a land large to five hectares for warehouse at Thanh-Xuan district Hanoi City, but Hanoi Public Lighting Company still faced many difficult to expand production meanwhile the exterior lighting equipment demands tend rush increase is real. Until to 1996s, base on Vietnam Government policies about use internal resources for development, as an investor, the Hanoi Public Lighting Company cooperated with some private shareholders to founded the Lighting & Electric JSC (acronym name is LITEC) for invest expand productions.

LITEC rented some industry workshops of Hanoi Public Lighting Company and quickly invested high-tech machineries to producing many kind of engineering components for outdoor lighting fixtures and producing the hot-dip galvanized steel lighting poles to supply for HAPULICO.
