JANUARY 20, 2021 BY ARCH KENNEDY 

You asked for it, so here you go! A look at conservative companies in America. By Arch Kennedy

Ok, friends. You asked for it so here you go. As Democrats have forced us into a country divided, many of you have asked me what companies support conservative principles. Here is a list featured on Conservapedia. This seems to be a fluid selection these days so it is always good to go back for updates periodically. Enjoy!

Very conservative

The following are companies that openly support conservative principles while refusing to support most if not all liberal ones.

  • Charity Mobile
  • Cintas Corporation (Business services company)
  • ConocoPhillips Corporation (energy provider)
  • ExxonMobil
  • Hemispheres
  • Hobby Lobby
  • Mardel
  • Molson Coors Brewing
  • Patriot Mobile
  • Sheetz
  • Uline Inc

Somewhat conservative

The following companies support some conservative causes and principles but do not seem to take a strong stand solely in their favor. These typically offer minor support to liberal causes, but from a statistical standpoint are still more conservative than not.

  • Abbott Laboratories (Similac, Pediasure, Pedialyte, etc.)
  • Applebee’s (DineEquity, Inc.)
  • Arby’s (Roark Capital Group)
  • Brave
  • Bass Pro Shops

  • Winn-Dixie (Southeastern Grocers)
  • Yuengling (craft beer company)

Slightly conservative

The following companies seem to show slight leanings or preferences towards conservative principles and causes, but do not seem firm or determined in this trend. Liberal causes are usually also supported at least in part, but overall, they tend to favor conservatism slightly.

  • Ace Hardware Corporation

Debatable whether conservative

    You listed Bed, Bath and Beyond in the Slightly Conservative list. Did you forget they banned Mike Lindell’s My Pillow products?

      Look at Timothy Plan if you want financial investing that avoids liberal and non-biblical companies.

    What did Lowes do? And where does Home Depot fall?

    Darden Restaurant owners btw were HUGE Obama supporters.

    I’m looking for basic healthcare brands that are conservative for soap/shampoo/conditioner to switch to. Also, shaving razors. Just basics! I’m ready to put my money behind co derivative or neutral companies, and no longer want to blindly support socialism with my purchasing dollars. Any ideas? Thanks!
