Service Corporation International provides funeral and cemetery services across North America through its network of over 1,500 funeral homes and 400 cemeteries. The company operates by offering end-of-life products and services under the Dignity Memorial brand, which standardizes quality and customer care for families planning memorials or burials.

Its goal is to leverage its geographic reach to remain the leading provider of death care services while ensuring consistent value and professional support for its clients.
