History

Scott Brothers Dairy was started in 1913 when Ira J. Scott came from Iowa to Southern California in a 50-foot railroad car with seven registered Guernsey’s, a horse-drawn carriage, milk wagon, flock of chickens, and household goods. As the dairy grew, it wasn't long before Ira’s sons, Leonard and Millard Scott, took over the business, hence the name Scott Bros. Dairy. Leonard’s son, Stan Scott, took over the dairy and creamery in 1970. By the late seventies the business had grown and Stan was eager to focus on the newly acquired farm in San Jacinto so he turned to his old college friend, Rene Peauroi, who like Stan had a long history of working in the Dairy industry. Rene was just a young boy while working alongside his father for the Pellesier dairy in what is now the City of Industry and later became owner of Little Home Dairy in LaHabra. In 1978 Stan entered into a partnership with Rene to take over the processing facilities in Chino. Today, this family owned business continues to grow. Sons, Bruce and Brad Scott work alongside their father, managing more than 900 acres of farmland and over 1,000 head of cattle in San Jacinto. Rene Peauroi, his son, Mike, and his son-in-law, Vince Sartain, work together managing the creamery facility in Chino.
