Our Story | Allied Flag

Allied Flag – Our History

Discover over 70 years of manufacturing excellence at Allied Brands, proudly rooted in the heart of America— Kansas City, Missouri. Since 1951, Allied has been a trusted partner to America’s essential institutions, with a mission centered on strengthening and growing American manufacturing.

Built on American Manufacturing Values

From the very beginning, Allied has focused on producing high-quality, American-made products while supporting domestic jobs and industries. Our long-standing presence in Kansas City reflects a deep commitment to the people, communities, and institutions that rely on dependable American manufacturing.

A Defining Moment in 1999

In 1999, Allied seized a pivotal opportunity to supply American-made textiles to the Veteran’s Administration, Department of Defense (DOD), and General Services Administration (GSA). This milestone marked the beginning of Allied’s evolution into a leader in American flag manufacturing.

Vertically Integrated, Proudly American

That opportunity led to Allied becoming the first vertically integrated manufacturer of American flags. This achievement revitalized the textile industry in Bogalusa, Louisiana, while creating valuable jobs in a Kansas City, Missouri HUBZone—where our skilled teams sew and assemble each flag into its final form.

Every Thread Made in the USA

Our commitment is reflected in every thread and every stitch. Allied flags are entirely produced in the United States, crafted with care, precision, and pride. Today, Allied stands as one of the largest suppliers of flags to the United States Government, with quality standards that remain uncompromising.

Our Promise
When you choose an Allied flag, you are supporting American workers, American materials, and a legacy of manufacturing excellence built over more than seven decades.

Rooted in the Heartland, Flown Across America

At Allied Flag, every stitch is sewn with pride – built to endure and to fly boldly through every season and storm.
These flags don’t just fly – they speak. Of service, Of Sacrifice. Of freedom.
We believe in honest work, faith in God, close family, and the pride of calling this country home.
Because being American isn’t just where you are from – it’s how you live.
Welcome to the Allied family.
