With more than 20 years of experience, Southland Patch & Promotions, Inc., located IN Jonesboro, Arkansas, provides top-quality, low-cost patches for companies, organizations, emergency services, and uniform companies. All of our patches are imported from Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar, and Taiwan. Additionally, we can deliver in 14 to 18 working days after approval of the pre-production, scanned-and-emailed product. We ship products faster than Chinese factories, and we handle all the communication issues, making ordering hassle free. Our company also offers woven labels.
Woven patches are used for various day-to-day applications and are becoming as popular as a regular, embroidery patch. The difference between woven and embroidery patches is the clarity of small letterings and designs. Our patches can be made on all types of backing, including iron-on, plastic, pressure sensitive, and with decorative, over-edge border backing. The many advantages of woven patches include:
More Accurate & Precise Detail
Ability to Have Clean & Smaller Lettering
Close to Photographic Realism
No Worrying about Embroidery Percentages (All Woven Patches Have 100% Coverage)
Thinner Thread (Say Goodbye to the Look of Chain Stitching)
The Overall Size of the Patch Can Be as Small as a Half Inch

Our Vision
“A world where everyone has a decent place to live.”
Our Mission
“Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope.”
Our History
Our parent organization, Habitat For Humanity, was founded in 1976 as a Christ centered, non-profit ministry work to help end the vicious cycle of poverty in our cities and towns.
Habitat For Humanity of Greater Jonesboro (HFHOGJ) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization founded on June 24, 1992.
Since then, we have worked to complete a minimum of one home a year. So far we have built 20 home in Jonesboro.
Giving “A Hand Up” not “A Hand Out”
Our homeowners do in fact buy their homes, but HFHOGJ offers the homes we build for a zero percent interest rate, making these homes affordable to persons and/or families who have lower than normal incomes.
These homeowners then make monthly payments to HFHOGJ instead of making payments to a bank.
