Daher (also stylized as DAHER) is a French industrial conglomerate. It is operational across the aerospace, defence, nuclear, and automotive industrial sectors in the fields of manufacturing, services, and transport.

It was founded in 1863 as a shipping company based in Marseille, France. Within its first decade of operation, it was taken over by the Daher family, who have held a controlling stake in the company for over 100 years.

During the twenty-first century, Daher has branched into the aviation industry, acquiring both French general aviation manufacturer SOCATA and American aircraft company Quest Aircraft. In addition to manufacturing its own light aircraft range, it is also active as a subcontractor of aerostructures on behalf of several aerospace firms, including Airbus, Boeing, Dassault, and Gulfstream Aerospace.
