John Brown & Company was a Scottish shipbuilding concern during the Dreadnought Era. Originally founded as an engineering firm, it acquired the J. & G. Thomson shipbuilding firm, which had been winning contracts to build destroyers for the Royal Navy in 1899. Operation then continued under the Brown name.
