FROM OUR FAMILY TO YOURS
Medal Awards Rack is a small family-owned business, founded by two brothers and based out of the State of Delaware. Over a decade ago, we introduced our first product into the market, which was derived from a handmade medal award rack and trophy shelf built by our father as a gift for us to proudly display our athletic accolades. We understand our customers are the lifeblood of our business and continue to strive to serve them with quality products and first-rate personal customer service.
