In 1881, Lauterer was founded in Chicago by George Lauterer, the company's eponymous founder. In the past 125 years, their business has been relocated many times, but it has always been operating in the loop area of downtown Chicago. They are a family business with 25 employees. They specialize in a full range of Brotherhood badges, welcome badges, and corporate awards. Custom-designed badges, prizes, banners, ribbons, promotional items and a wide range of badges are just a few of the many products they offer. Lauterer is still an entity and their business in the Internet sector continues to grow. They provide quality goods for the Freemasonry, the Oriental Star, the Elk Brotherhood, the Church and various associations. They are looking forward to providing you with high quality products, first class customer service, and more.
