Azur Prévoyance Funéraire

Do you wish to be cremated or buried? Would you like a secular service, a religious service, or simply to go quietly?

Because each person is different, each funeral plan is unique.

This ranges from the choice of coffin to the early draft of the death announcement, including the choice of ceremony location, type of burial and even the choice of flowers.

Funeral planning guarantees that everyone’s wishes are respected and relieves relatives of any choice that may prove difficult at the time of the death of a loved one.

It also relieves the family of the financial burden of the funeral.

Azur Prévoyance Funéraire offers a wide range of services, all of which are adapted to the wishes, culture and religion of its clients.

The budget can be adjusted at a personal meeting with advisors, who offer guidance and support throughout your plan.

On our website, you can find information on creating a funeral plan, as well as financing arrangements and securing funds paid.

We will also inform you about our partners in each canton because it is important that you know who you will be in touch with.

Funeral planning services have been a part of the funeral business since the profession began.

Throughout history, people have wanted to anticipate their funeral arrangements. To achieve this, they have turned to a funeral director.

Until 1981, funeral plan contracts were held in the accounts of Pompes Funèbres Générales.

To separate the funeral director business from funeral planning, although the two remain closely linked, Pompes Funèbres Générales SA decided in 1981 to create Aléa Prévoyance Funéraire SA, the first funeral planning company in French-speaking Switzerland.

When the Pompes Funèbres Générales SA group was restructured in 2001, the Geneva, Neuchâtel and Fribourg branches were sold to become Pompes Funèbres Générales Genève SA.

In 2002, Azur Prévoyance Funéraire SA was founded in Geneva, Neuchâtel and Fribourg, taking over all the contracts held by Aléa Prévoyance Funéraire SA in these three cantons.

To date, there are only two genuine funeral planning companies attached to genuine funeral directors: Aléa Prévoyance Funéraire SA in the canton of Vaud since 1981, and Azur Prévoyance Funéraire SA in the cantons of Geneva, Neuchâtel and Fribourg since 2002.

Since 2002, Azur Prévoyance Funéraire SA has remained a company on a human scale, despite growing demand.

Our advisors are professionals in the funeral business who support families experiencing bereavement every day, in many different situations, some more complex than others. They know how to guide families in a sensitive yet efficient way.
