Harmony Gold is a television production and distribution company established in 1983. It is best known as the "creator" and main distributor of the anime series Robotech. It also partially dubbed the Dragon Ball series in the late 1980s.

Harmony Gold also partly funded the controversial 1986 Shaka Zulu TV series in South Africa in spite of economic sanctions. After the cancellation of Robotech II: The Sentinels, a number of the staff were recruited to work at Saban Entertainment. The company's public profile then fell into a near-dormant state for much of the 1990s, and its flagship Robotech franchise also fell into a state of neglect. In recent years, Harmony Gold appears to have rebounded on the DVD medium with the success of its Robotech series, released in partnership with ADV Films.
