Boans was a department store chain that operated in Perth, Western Australia between from the late 19th century to the late 20th century.

It was located between Wellington Street and Murray Street and had the Padbury Buildings between it and Forrest Place.

The store was founded by Harry Boan and his brother Benjamin who both came to Perth in 1895 from Broken Hill in western New South Wales.[1] Harry and another brother, Ernest, had previously established a successful drapery known as "Boan Bros. Ltd." in that town.
