We are a sewing business, a manufacturer, a social enterprise and a forward thinking dynamic product design company, all rolled into one.
Our business is unique in what it does on two fronts.... one, we make custom flags every day and two, we
...
are the only social enterprise flag maker in the world. We do make the generic national flags but there are so many other companies out there importing the cheap stuff from south east Asia that we leave the economy stuff to them and focus on the high end here in our UK workshop.
Flagmaker or flag retailer....?
There are plenty of flag retailers on the market selling standard flag, bunting and banner products at different prices with varying degrees of quality (and ability to deliver).
Buyer beware - not all 'flag makers' actually make the flags they sell..... which means that you the customer are paying a premium for the middle man. Perhaps you'd prefer to buy direct from the manufacturer? You've come to the right place!
We believe there is more than enough business to go around and that the key to success is to be open and transparent, honest and trustworthy and to do 'exactly what it says on the tin'. So this is what we do.
The importance of identity
Identity is what differentiates everything. Flags are one of the oldest forms of indentity and the imagery and format of flags is linked in every way to represent the identity of a national, a club, business or country.
Production capacity - we are flagmakers
Red Dragon Flagmakers make everything from scratch in our own independent workshops. We can (and frequently do) help other flagmakers fulfill tenders, contracts, emergency orders and last minute complex non standard production designs in small or large quantities.
We're pretty unique in what we do, and fundamentally we really are flagmakers, in name and function.
We supply a niche product using traditional skills and produce one-off design of every size and complexity of design on a daily basis. 85% of our business is in the production of custom sewn and printed flags. That's what we do. That's what we're great at.
Traditional skills, niche product, enviable history and experience, in depth knowledge, classic quality British made product and professional, efficient and friendly customer service.
Red Dragon Flagmakers was borne out of a family company manufacturing traditional sewn flags, established in 1969 and a result of the merger of several business into one social enterprise under the Limited company name, Red Dragon Manufacturing Ltd in 2014.
