Desert Cactus was one of the first mass producers of fraternity and sorority flags over a decade ago. Our purpose in doing so was to give members the chance to show their pride for their specific fraternity or sorority in a variety of ways. Every product we produce now, we want members to show their pride for their organization with a quality product.
Every one of our tie bars are made of a high quality metal, uses any official colors from the crest and uses the official crest. As a Greek Licensed Vendor, each national organization gives us artwork to use but also approved the product before mass production.
Being a Greek Licensed Vendor means that each group's national headquarters staff (or representatives) approve each of our designs. In addition to this we're given the official colors of each group, special fonts, logos, etc. In exchange for this, each licensed vendor pays a percentage of their sales back to each national organization or an annual fee depending on the organization.
