History.
Robert Scott, an American businessman, moved to the UK in 1963 as national sales manager for the shaver company Remington Products. After Remington he was headhunted to a company which was later to become Russell Hobbs and at the age of 27 he became managing director. He then founded Scotcade, a direct marketing company that sold innovative products through the colour Sunday supplements that were popular in the late seventies and eighties. The business was bought by Courtaulds in 1982 and then sold to Grattan in 1985. Robert Scott semi-retired and moved to the Cotswolds, subsequently founding Scotts of Stow in 1991. 
In 1996, the company was bought by Nigel Swabey, who runs the company alongside a range of other home catalogues including Bloom, Gift Discoveries and Expert Verdict. Scotts of Stow remains the flagship company of the parent group, Scotts &amp; Co. Scotts of Stow is mentioned by Jeremy Clarkson in QI, where he states that his wife is a fan and they own various pieces purchased from Scotts.
