About Association

     The Asian Funeral and Cemetery Association (AFCA) is an authoritative regional industry cooperation organization based in Asia with a global reach. With the core foundation of integrating high-quality resources in Asia's funeral and cemetery industry and breaking down barriers to industry development, the Association focuses on three core tracks — industrial collaboration, cross-border cooperation, and industry upgrading — and is fully committed to building a professional, standardized, and international industry development platform, empowering the Asian funeral industry toward standardized, high-quality, and sustainable development.

     Since its establishment, the Association has extensively gathered high-quality industry forces from across Asia, with members covering multiple countries and regions including Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Japan, South Korea, and more. It has brought together a host of outstanding enterprises, professional institutions, and seasoned industry professionals deeply engaged in the field, building a complete full-industry-chain ecosystem spanning funeral services, cemetery operations, stone processing, coffin manufacturing, ritual supplies, cremation equipment, environmental technology, digital memorials, and other areas, achieving resource connectivity, complementary advantages, and collaborative development across the upstream and downstream of the industry.

     Leveraging its extensive industry resources and deep industrial accumulation, the Association has always upheld the principles of exchange and connectivity, inclusive coexistence, and innovative development. It actively promotes regional cross-border industrial exchange and cooperation, the implementation of industry standards, the popularization of green funerals, and multicultural integration, empowering industry enterprises and helping member companies break through geographical limitations, expand into international markets, and enhance their core competitiveness and industry influence.

     "Go fast alone, go far together." We firmly believe that with the unity and collective efforts of all members, and with the resource advantages of the full industry chain and the driving force of continuous innovation, Asia's funeral industry will break through industry boundaries, radiate new vitality, and showcase Asian characteristics, Asian strength, and unique brilliance on the international stage of the global funeral industry.
