Indochino Chairman and CEO Drew Green Joins Shooting Stars Ownership Group

The Scarborough Shooting Stars of the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) announced today that award-winning entrepreneur and business leader Drew Green has joined the franchise’s ownership group alongside existing co-owners of the CEBL and Scarbough Shooting Stars, Sam Ibrahim, Niko Carino and Giancarlo Falcioni. 

Green, a visionary Canadian executive and the founder of one of the world’s fastest-growing apparel brands, brings more than 25 years of leadership experience building global companies, forming strategic partnerships, and driving community impact.

As the long-time Chairman and CEO of INDOCHINO, Green led the company’s transformation into a global retail powerhouse securing over $100 million in strategic investments and expanding to over 100 retail locations across North America, and delivering INDOCHINO to over 50 countries the past decade. Under his leadership, INDOCHINO sold over a billion dollars worldwide and formed partnerships with hundreds of athletes, celebrities, and professional sports teams across the MLB, NHL, NBA, and NFL.

“Joining the Scarborough Shooting Stars is an incredible honour,” said Green. “I’m a Scarborough kid through and through. This community shaped who I am and I’ve always believed in the power of Basketball to unite people, inspire youth and showcase the best of Canadian talent and culture. Scarborough represents everything good about Canada, with the community known for energy, ambition and resilience -- values that align with everything I stand for. Together, we are going to build something special for our fans and our city. Could not be more grateful for the opportunity, or excited about the impact we will have on the community.”

A highly decorated leader, Green has been recognized with numerous honours, including the Lifetime Innovation in Retail Award (2017), Retailer of the Year by Chain Store Age (2018), EY Entrepreneur of the Year (2018), and most recently the King Charles Coronation Medal (2025) for his contributions to business and the community across Canada and globally. In 2019, Canadian Business ranked INDOCHINO the #1 fastest-growing Canadian retailer globally, and #3 among retailers with revenues over $100 million.

Beyond his business achievements, Green is deeply committed to education and philanthropy. He serves on the Board of Governors at York University, his alma mater, and has sponsored annual scholarships for student-athletes at both York University and the University of British Columbia the past decade through the Drew Green Award established at each University. 

“We’re incredibly excited to welcome Drew to the Shooting Stars family,” said Sam Ibrahim, Co-Owner of the Scarborough Shooting Stars. “He’s an exceptional leader with a proven ability to build world-class brands and organizations. His passion for community, business, and sport will help us take the Shooting Stars to new heights.”

“Drew’s track record speaks for itself,” added Niko Carino, Co-Owner of the Shooting Stars. “He brings not just business acumen but a genuine commitment to our fans, players, and the community. His involvement marks a new chapter for our franchise.”

Giancarlo Falcioni, Co-Owner, shared, “Drew’s energy and vision fit perfectly with what we’ve been building in Scarborough, something that’s bigger than basketball. We’re thrilled to have him on board as we continue to grow the game and give back to our community.”

In his role as franchise partner, Green will work closely with the ownership team to strengthen the club’s community connections, enhance fan experience, and expand the organization’s reach both in Canada and internationally.
