The Moroccan Company (Danish: marrokanske Kompagni) or the Afrikan Company (Danish: afrikanske Kompagni), formally The Royal Danish Chartered African Company (Danish: Det Kongelig Danske Oktrojerede Afrikanske kompagni), sometimes also called the Dano-African Company (Danish: dansk-afrikanske kompagni), was a Danish chartered company operating in the Sultanate of Morocco from 1755–1766. The company would through various treaties be given factories at multiple Moroccan ports, yet would prove a failure and be dissolved in 1766.
