Jan Canfield, "The Flag Lady", started her own business in 1988 selling flags, poles and banners of every type and size. Flags supplied by Jan can be seen flying from flagpoles and hanging on walls all over town, all over the country and even all over the world! Jan grew up in a flag family in Boston, where her father owned a flag company for over 40 years. Flags are in her blood.

Jan Canfield has learned there's a reason in every season for somebody to wave some type of flag. And chances are good Canfield is the one who supplied it.
The results of Canfield's business can be seen fluttering from flagpoles and hanging on walls all over town. In addition to countless individuals, Canfield has supplied flags to such businesses and institutions as Memorial Park Funeral Home & Cemetery, Buckman Laboratories, AutoZone. Inc., schools, churches and police departments.
Canfield supplies not only U.S. and state flags, but flags of other nations and specializes in custom flags and banners. A custom flag or banner might show the name of logo of a company or school, for example.
