Scott Brothers Global

Scott Brothers Global is the international entertainment production company founded by brothers and partners Jonathan and Drew Scott. The company has its origins in Dividian Production Group, an independent film company that the twins, along with their older brother JD, founded in 2002. Dividian Production Group became Scott Brothers Entertainment in 2010, before coming under the umbrella of Scott Brothers Global in 2017.

Brothers JD, Jonathan, and Drew Scott founded Dividian Production Group in 2002 as an independent film company. In 2010, Dividian Production Group became Scott Brothers Entertainment, and in 2013, they shifted the focus from film to television and digital platforms. As part of the restructuring, the brothers brought on Katie Ruttan Daigle to the position of Vice President of Development and Production in the company's Factual Entertainment division. She had worked with the brothers before, having produced the first episode of Property Brothers.

Scott Brothers Global was officially incorporated in March 2017 as an umbrella company of their various brands. Headquarters were moved from Las Vegas to Nashville in 2019, a more central location to licensees and the company's partners. Its corporate office remains in Las Vegas, while the television production company operates out of Toronto. In 2018, David Dembroski became president of the company. In that position, he possesses fiscal oversight and brand management responsibility for all areas of Scott Brothers Global, including "brand licensing, endorsement, entertainment, book publishing and the television production businesses." Laura Aldrich is Executive Vice President of Licensing. Michael Kim, based in Los Angeles, is the senior vice president of business development. Alina Duviner, in Toronto, serves as Vice President of Communications. Amy Melen, operating from New York, is the Vice President of Production Design.

Founded in 2010, the company creates television, film, and digital content for distribution in North American and international markets. The original logo for Scott Brothers Entertainment features the heads of the three brothers, in order: Jonathan, Drew, and JD. Most of the initial content focused on projects starring Jonathan and Drew, and projects affiliated with the Property Brothers franchise. More recently, the brand has expanded to media vehicles outside of the brothers' brand. Jonathan and Drew also formed a pop country music duo named The Scott Brothers releasing a number of singles and music videos.

David Dembroski serves as president Scott Brothers Global, Josie Crimi as Executive Vice President of Development & Production, Drew's wife, Linda Phan, serves as the company's Creative Director.

The web series Toddler Vs. Toddler and Property Brothers Big Day Off were produced in 2013 and aired on HGTV and the W Network. The webisode Makeover Manor was produced for Funny or Die and also starred Love it or List It stars David Visentin and Hilary Farr, Scott McGillivray, Ty Pennington, Bryan Baeumler, Candice Olson, Sandra Rinomato, plus Jersey Shore stars, Sammi Giancola and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro. In 2014, Scott Brothers Entertainment produced the new series, Half Price Paradise, for HGTV and HGTV Canada. Scott Brothers Entertainment also produced Property Brothers: at Home, which was the highest rated series premiere on HGTV since 2009. Property Brothers: at Home featured Jonathan and brother Drew Scott as they renovated their Las Vegas family home.

In 2014, SBE expanded its in-house digital team to focus on making more online content for their network partners. Beginning in March 2017, the brothers partnered with Chase Bank for a series of commercials on lending options for homeowners. The 2017 web series Wedding Crafts with Linda starred Drew and his fiancée, Linda Phan, as they demonstrate do-it-yourself wedding-themed crafts, including party menus, cocktails, rehearsal dinner invitations, table centerpieces, and wedding favors. The 11-part series began on November 15, 2017 and was featured on HGTV's social media accounts. The program Drew and Linda Say I Do, will chronicle the couple's week-long wedding festivities in the Italian countryside and air on TLC. They've also produced pilots for two reality shows, The Meat Boss and "Warming Up with Erin Heatherton."

The brothers are currently developing a screenplay written by their father James, called High September, about a cowboy who wrongly served a 30-year sentence, only to come out and be abandoned by his family. Jonathan has written a documentary series about renewable energy. Together, the brothers have written two screenplays, one about a lonely "hook up" artist, and the other about "a band of brothers" from a rural town who have wholesome values. With offices in both the US and Canada, Scott Brothers Entertainment is currently in production on two original series for Scripps Networks Interactive, as well as other projects.
