Funeral Homes in the US Industry Market Research Report from IBISWorld Has Been Updated
PRWeb - Tue Dec 31, 10:01AM CST
In 2013, the Funeral Homes industry is expected to record a revenue increase from the previous year. Over the past five years, revenue has grown, led by increasing revenue from merchandise sales and greater customization offerings. However, the recession did take its toll on the industry, with revenue falling during 2009 as a result of lower consumer disposable income and rising demand for inexpensive cremations. According to the latest data from the Cremation Association of North America (CANA), an estimated 43.2% of deceased persons were cremated in 2012, compared with 36.0% in 2008. Additionally, during the recession, cash-strapped families turned to discount retailers and manufacturers to purchase caskets, which further depressed revenue for funeral home operators.
