FFA Licensing

The National FFA Organization offers two types of licensing: trademark and commercial co-venture. The application process for both can take between 30-45 days to complete.

Trademark Licensing — Licensing is when a company pays a fee to use our brand on products. Opportunities for this licensing include selling wholesale on commercial markets, selling at retail (including e-commerce), and selling directly to local chapters or state associations.

Commercial Co-Ventures — A commercial co-venture is a unique business project or marketing campaign between a for-profit business and the National FFA Organization. Commercial co-venture possibilities include point of sales (active or passive); messaging campaigns; purchase or action-triggered campaigns; employee engagement efforts; and other digital programs.

For this type of licensing, corporate partners must help raise awareness and educate the public on the importance of agricultural education and FFA.

Per the policy of the National FFA Board of Directors, a local chapter, a state association or a state foundation may not grant use of the FFA trademarks, either actual or implied, to any third party for commercial use without written permission from the National FFA Organization.

The National FFA Organization owns the rights to several trademarks and carefully manages their commercial use. The organization is obligated to protect against unauthorized uses.

  • FFA Emblem (US Trademark Reg. No. 1723677)
  • FFA (US Trademark Reg. No. 1201615)
  • FFA New Horizons (US Trademark Reg. No. 1645195

FFA has the sole and exclusive right to use its proprietary marks.

As a trademark owner, the National FFA Organization is obligated to protect against unauthorized or potentially confusing uses of its trademarks and, therefore, carefully manages their commercial use. No one can use the FFA marks for a commercial purpose without the express written permission of the National FFA Organization.

A local chapter may not use the FFA marks for commercial purposes, nor may a chapter, state association, state foundation, National FFA Foundation, member, or alumni chapter grant such rights, either actual or implied, to any third party. All of the above-mentioned items are responsible for adhering to these same requirements and standards for product purchases and must either be purchased directly from the National FFA Organization Shop FFA or an Official Licensee. Shop FFA is specifically charged with serving as the designated product supplier for the National FFA Organization, state FFA associations, and local FFA chapters and holds its vendors to a review process very similar to that of licensees.
