The Myer family is an Australian retailing dynasty of Jewish origin. It was founded in Australia by Sidney Myer, who started the department store Myer, and Merlyn Myer, his wife. Following the death of Sidney Myer in 1934, his nephew, Sir Norman Myer, continued much of his retailing dynasty. The family has a strong history of philanthropy and established one of Australia's first single family offices in 1976.

The Myer family were founded by brothers Elcon (1875-1938) and Simcha (Sidney) Myer Baevski (1878-1934). They were two of eleven sons of Ezekiel Baevski and Koona Dubrusha, who were Russian Jews in Krychaw (Krichev), present-day Belarus. With little money, Elcon, and later Sidney, would migrate to Australia, learning English and taking the family name Myer. Sidney would found the Myer department store, where he established his family's wealth. On 8 January 1920, Sidney married Merlyn Baillieu, a member of the wealthy Baillieu family.
