Description
Celebrate your national heritage or commemorate past travels with the unique state flag of Zimbabwe!
Our Zimbabwean flag is manufactured in the US from nylon, a lightweight yet tough fabric built for outdoor flying. Nylon’s lightness allows it to dry quickly, helping prevent mildew growth after rain or humidity. The colorful stripes and bird emblem are digitally printed for precise details and bright, vibrant hues. This flag is printed using UV-resistant inks, which helps prevent fading even when flown in direct sunlight.
Each Zimbabwe flag features a durable canvas header and brass grommets for secure flying from one of our outdoor flagpoles. For assistance choosing a size option, refer to our table of standard pole heights and their proportional flag size.

Zimbabwe Flag Meaning & History
The modern flag of Zimbabwe was adopted on April 18, 1980, after regaining independence from the British Empire.
The stripes are based on the flag of the ruling political party, the Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front. The green stripes represent agriculture, the yellow is for gold natural resources, the red stands for the fight for freedom, and the black represents the people of Zimbabwe.
The symbol on the left, known as the ‘Zimbabwe Bird,’ is based on several soapstone statues discovered during excavations in Great Zimbabwe. The red star behind it represents socialism and revolution.
