SII was established in May 2010, after a group of investors, including HCM City Infrastructure Investment Joint Stock Company (CII) took over Viet Thanh Investment Construction Joint Stock Company.
In May 2011, SII decided to change its main business field to environmental infrastructure, including wastewater treatment, clean water supply and electricity production. SII chair is Le Quoc Binh, who is also serving as general director of CII.
