The former flag of Saruhanlı (photo, photo) is white with the municipality's former emblem. The motto reads "Grapes' Capital". "Belediyesi" means "Municipality".
The emblem was adopted in December 2015, replacing the one used since 1953.
The new emblem, designed by Art Director Mustafa Cenk Deniz, was unanimously accepted by the Municipal Council.
It is based on five elements:
- the silhouette of Saruhan Bey, the town's namesake;
- the world-renowned Saruhanlı grapes;
- arable fields;
- olives;
- wheat spikes.

Saruhan Bey, a Turkmen from Khorassan rallied to Seljuk Sultan Kaykubad I (1220-1237), was the founder of the Saruhan Beylicate. He seized Manisa from the Byzantines in 1313.
The logo features a representation of his statue erected in Saruhanlı (photo).
Saruhanlı was registered as "Grapes' Capital" by the Turkish Patent Institute. Raisin production amounts each year to 40,000-45,000 tons, which constitutes more than 10% of the national share. Four companies employ 1,250 workers.
