The American flag was less than fifty years old when Alexander Annin began making US flags for the merchant ships in his sail-making shop on the New York City waterfront in the 1820’s.
Since that time Annin Flagmakers has grown and prospered along with our nation, the story of our company is interwoven with the story of America itself: - It was an Annin flag that flew at the inauguration of President Zachary Taylor, starting an inaugural tradition that has continued through the inauguration of President George W. Bush.
- An Annin flag draped the coffin of President Abraham Lincoln on its journey from Washington D.C. to Springfield, Illinois.
- The U.S. Marines raised an Annin flag atop Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima in 1945
- NASA selected an Annin flag to participate in Apollo 11’s mission to the moon in 1969.
Today Annin Flagmakers is America’s oldest and largest flag company, remaining heads and shoulders above any other U.S. flag manufacturing company in the United States.
Annin Flagmakers is still family owned and operated and Annin attributes its longevity and success to its dedication to quality and service to its customers. Annin hires the best workers, trains them and gives them the best materials and equipment to work with and from that, gets the best quality flags.
