Description
Our flag of Niger is constructed in America from nylon, a durable and lightweight fabric that flies easily, even in gentle breezes. The tricolor and orange circle are digitally printed for bold, vivid colors that are fade-resistant, even when flown in direct sunlight.
These flags come equipped with a sturdy canvas heading and brass grommets for straightforward installation on one of our outdoor flagpoles. We offer the Niger flag in sizes 2’ x 3’, 3’ x 5’, 4’ x 6’, 5’ x 8’, and 6’ x 10’.

Niger Flag Meaning & History
The Niger Republic flag was adopted on November 23, 1959, a year before the country gained independence from the French Empire. The orange stripe represents the Sahara Desert and the Sahel, a semi-arid region that stretches across northern Africa. The white stripe symbolizes the Niger River, while the green stripe is for the arable land of southern Niger, as well as the traditional color of Islam, the country’s majority religion. The orange circle stands for the sun.
