Guild Home Video was one of the earliest and most successful independent video companies in the United Kingdom, formed in 1979 by Esselte. In its early years, Guild was known for the high quality of their releases and having a large catalogue compared to other companies of the time, and being a distributor for other companies' titles helped them survive the 1984 Video Recordings Act, which caused many other video companies at the time to go out of business.

In 1987, the company founded a theatrical division - Guild Film Distribution.

In 1989, Guild's parent company Guild Entertainment was purchased out from Esselte by Wembley PLC, and eventually by Chargeurs in 1992, becoming the de-facto distributor for Pathé's films. Guild changed their distributor from PolyGram Video to 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment in 1995.

In 1996, when Chargeurs split their entertainment division under the Pathé brand, Pathé began the process of retiring the Guild brand. The theatrical division was renamed as Guild Pathé Cinema and eventually as Pathé Distribution in June 1997. The Guild brand was retired on home video in 1997 in favour of the Pathé brand.
