Why Choose Custom Flags?
Custom flags offer unlimited possibilities to showcase your brand, commemorate special events, or display organizational pride. Whether you're a business looking to enhance your visibility, a school celebrating achievements, or a community organization marking a milestone, a custom flag serves as a powerful symbol that flies your message high for all to see.
The Baldwin Priesmeyer Difference
What sets us apart in Missouri's flag industry? Our "make it happen" philosophy drives everything we do. We don't just take orders; we partner with you to bring your vision to life. With our team of experienced designers, including Cole and Gabby, who specialize in custom flag creation, about 10-15% of our orders require design support, and we're here to guide you through every step.
All our flags are proudly made in the USA, ensuring the highest quality materials and craftsmanship. We work with trusted suppliers like Valley Forge, Eder, and Concord to guarantee your custom flag meets our exacting standards.
Step-by-Step Ordering Process
Step 1: Contact Us Reach out to our team at 314-535-2800 or visit baldwinflags.com. We respond to quotes within 2-24 hours, depending on the complexity of your design requirements.
Step 2: Design Consultation Our design team will work with you to understand your vision. Whether you have a complete design ready or just an idea, we'll help refine the concept. We provide customer approval for all custom flags before production begins.
Step 3: Material Selection Choose between nylon (flies beautifully in light winds) or polyester (30-40% longer lifespan, better for harsh weather conditions). Our team will recommend the best option based on your intended use and location.
Step 4: Size and Specifications Custom flags can be created in virtually any size. We'll help you determine the optimal dimensions based on your flagpole height and visibility requirements.
Step 5: Proof Approval We'll provide a detailed proof of your custom flag design for your approval before production begins. This ensures your flag meets your exact specifications.
Step 6: Production and Quality Control Once approved, your flag enters our production process. We maintain rigorous quality control with visual inspections and spot checks throughout manufacturing.
Pricing and Volume Options
Our custom flags are competitively priced with volume discounts available. For orders of 12 or more custom banners, pricing drops to $65 each (regular price $80). We maintain 40-50% profit margins industry-wide, ensuring fair pricing while delivering exceptional value.
Timeline and Delivery
We understand timing is crucial for custom projects. Our streamlined process typically delivers custom flags within our standard production timeline, with expedited options available for urgent needs. We ship nationwide via UPS ground, ensuring your custom flag reaches you safely and on schedule.
