Ginza Musik AB (Ginza) is a Swedish mail order company that sells music, movies, and computer games.
The company was founded in 1968 when CEO Hans Haraldsson, still living with his parents, started selling vinyl records and music cassettes from his room. The company was then, and remains, based in the small village of Fåglum about 75 km north east of Gothenburg. The company had 60 employees and a turnover of about 300 million SEK (33 M€) in 2004.
The name Ginza is taken from the 1966 song Ginza Lights by The Ventures.
