Custom Awards Handcrafted to Honor Every Achievement
Some custom awards end up in a drawer. The ones from Hodges Badge Company end up on the wall. Since 1920, we have been designing and handcrafting custom awards for equestrian events, dog shows, school competitions, corporate ceremonies, county fairs, and everything in between. Over a century later, the mission is still the same; help people celebrate hard work in a way that actually means something.
At Hodges Badge Company Awards, we understand that customization is crucial for creating meaningful custom awards for every budget. We make custom ribbons, rosettes, medals, plaques, trophies, crystal awards, and recognition pieces, all built to last and designed around your event, your colors, and your story.
