| 1999 | We were severely affected from economic collapsed so we decided to look beyond our current market. Then we started to produce mechanical parts for export market which was less impact. In that primary stages, we had to rent some more machines from colleges in Bangkok Metropolitan Region. |
| 2001 | After 3 years of hard working, we were able to afford the first but used CNC from Japan. Then CNC Department was named, some corner in the factory and parking area were alloted for use. Our customers were gradually increased due to customer’s word-of-mouth advertising. |
| 2003 | After the economic crisis, we managed our business policy with the Sufficiency Economy that we avoided spending over the budget and not create any debt. Moreover, we also rely on ourselves then we , for the first time, were able to spend our saving for brand new HURCO CNC Machining Center. |
| 2006 | Owing to the increasing customers with good sales, we built the first CNC building within the area of main factory and gradually purchased the machines once we have sufficient cash until finally CNC Department had all the necessary equipments. |

After returning, Khun Voradej has applied the knowledge accumulated to improve the operation of the factory. Since then three group of Japanese business visitors from Fukuoka made a business trip to our factory.

| | We realized that our factory was getting crowded with so many equipments in the same time we were dealing with overseas customers thus we decided to build a new factory at Tambon Ta-sao where it was only 8 km. from the original location. |
| 2011 | In order to increase the production workability, we purchased 5 more CNC Machining Center from Germany and CMM’s Hexagon but due to heavy flood though we had not been damaged the machine installation has been postponed to the next year. |
| | Joined the exhibition “Thai Subcon” which was our first time experience, we got many customers after the event. |
| | After flood disaster, many of our major customers experienced severe damage so we set the policy to repay our kindness such as urgently produced the replacement parts, provided some products or materials needed, help cleaning their premises, extending credit term or even giving some food for encouragement. |
| 2012 | We increased our capability of 5 more CNC units to support the high demand and replaced the old ones. At the end of 2012 we moved CNC Department to new factory officially opened on December 1, 2012 as “Jitchai Engineering Products Co., Ltd ” which was subsidiary of Jitchai Group under the direction of Khun Voradej Leela-aswin, the Managing Director. |
