Rhino Entertainment music and media

Rhino Entertainment is a renowned American record label and production company that serves as the specialized catalog division for Warner Music Group. Originally founded in 1978 by Richard Foos and Harold Bronson, the brand began as a record store in Los Angeles before evolving into a major player in the music industry, famous for its high-quality reissues, compilations, and boxed sets of legendary artists.

While the company is headquartered in the United States, its physical products—such as vinyl records, CDs, and specialty box sets—are manufactured in multiple countries across North America and Europe to serve global markets. Ownership of the brand transitioned significantly over the decades; after a long-standing distribution partnership, Warner Music Group fully acquired Rhino in the early 2000s. As of 2026, it remains a key subsidiary of Warner Music Group, which is itself controlled by the global industrial conglomerate Access Industries, owned by Len Blavatnik.
