Why Teardrop Banners Are Perfect for Food Businesses

Teardrop banners are lightweight, easy to assemble, and highly visible even in windy conditions. For cafés and restaurants, they work as permanent signage or temporary promotion tools. You can position them on footpaths, carparks, or near road intersections to catch attention.

Our teardrop flag banners kitsets are available in multiple sizes and include PDF and Canva templates so you can design your own flags in minutes. We also provide a step-by-step Canva tutorial for first-time designers.


How to Design Your Own Custom Flags

Designing a custom flag or flag banner is easier than you think:

  1. Choose the right template – Download our free teardrop template or use the pre-sized Canva link on each product page.

  2. Add your branding – Include your logo, café name, or special offer. Keep text large and readable from a distance.

  3. Use bold colours – Bright colours make your advertising flag visible even in busy streets.

  4. Export in vector format – PDF, AI, EPS, or SVG work best for print.
