Abril Vídeo was the home video division of Grupo Abril, one of the biggest publishers in Brazil, founded in 1983 as a major VHS distributor of mainly Disney videos. The company did actually have ties with Disney as far back as 1950, being the official distributor of their comics in Brazil, and later on, would become the official publisher of 20th Century Fox and Playboy Home Video tapes for years. The company, however, would be dissolved in 1999 due to Disney and Fox now publishing their titles domestically, as well as the slow decline of VHS as a leading format. | Abril Vídeo was the home video division of Grupo Abril, one of the biggest publishers in Brazil, founded in 1983 as a major VHS distributor of mainly Disney videos.
