  Global Video plc was a chain of British video rental stores that ceased trading in 2006.
  
  The chain's founder, Maq Rasul, was ranked among Scotland’s Richest Asians in a 2005 survey published by Sunrise Radio. His business had a number of rivals such as Blockbuster Video, Tesco DVD and LoveFilm. It subsequently went into administration and in June 2006, the last store closed.
