Hans Broge (4 December 1822 – 25 March 1908) was a Danish merchant, politician, Commander of the Order of the Dannebrog and recipient of the Danish Medal of Merit. He became one of the most prominent Danish businessmen of his time and helped establish companies that became major and long-lasting enterprises. Broge particularly affected the city of Aarhus as a major employer and philanthropist and through his tenure on the city council but he also served on the Council of the State for a short period. Broge greatly expanded exports to England and did significant work in training and educating farmers to produce higher quality products. Hans Broge became known as "King Hans" or "King of the Jutes" (Danish: Jydernes Konge) due to his dominant position in the economy of Jutland.
