THE WORDS OF THE PRESIDENT

"The French Trade Association for Funeral Art brings together the sector of French suppliers working in service to professionals. Its ambition is to promote the businesses it represents, their expertise and their added value in funeral rites.

To this end, it created the FUNÉRAIRE PARIS trade exhibition in 1987. Since then, every two years, the event brings together the main players in the sector and has become the reference event in the industry.

This new 2025 edition will once again showcase the dynamism, innovation and values that drive all professionals to anticipate the many changes in our society.

Wishing everyone an excellent trade exhibition.
"
