Hodges Badge Company, Inc.

What makes a truly exceptional rosette? It starts with quality ribbon material. We use premium satin ribbon stock that holds its pleat, maintains its color, and keeps its body year after year. Visit any longtime exhibitor's trophy room, and you'll see the difference, our rosettes from years ago still look crisp and vibrant, while cheaper alternatives have curled, faded, or deteriorated.

Construction expertise matters. Our rosettes are handcrafted daily by our dedicated team in our Missouri factory. Each rosette features secure centers, streamers that hang properly, and pleating, points and petals that's both beautiful and durable. We understand that these awards need to withstand being pinned to dogs, attached to crates, photographed repeatedly, and displayed in trophy rooms. We build them to last.

Yes! Hodges Badge Company makes it easy to order fully personalized rosettes featuring your event logo and branding. Every rosette in the Hodges Badge collection can be customized with your organization's name, event title, show date, placement text, and logo or artwork incorporated into the rosette center design. This means your Champion, Reserve Champion, or Grand Champion rosettes can carry your unique brand identity, making them even more meaningful to the competitors who earn them. Personalized logo rosettes are a popular choice for horse shows, dog shows, county fairs, 4-H programs, and equestrian associations that want a polished, professional award presentation. Use the design tools at hodgesbadge.com to start building your custom logo rosettes or call 1-800-556-2440 for hands-on design assistance from our customization team.

Great question! Both flat ribbons and rosettes are popular award choices for horse shows, dog shows, fairs, and competitions, but they differ in style, appearance, and occasion. Flat award ribbons are the traditional straight ribbon style, typically used for everyday placements like 1st through 6th place. They are simple, cost-effective, and classic. Rosettes, on the other hand, feature a decorative gathered or pleated center (the "rosette") with streamers hanging below, creating a more dramatic, premium look. Rosettes are often used for Champion, Reserve Champion, Grand Champion, Best in Show, or placement awards that deserve to stand out. At Hodges Badge Company, you'll find both flat award ribbons and custom rosettes in a wide range of styles, all fully customizable for your event.
