AVBOB Industries - based in Bloemfontein and Rustenburg, manufactures a quality range of coffins, wreaths, funeralware and tombstones for the funeral industry.
The AVBOB group acknowledges that the majority of our population, due to the past dispensation, has been denied the opportunity to participate meaningfully in the mainstream economic activities of our country. We therefore believe it is our responsibility to contribute to the promotion of the economic empowerment of previously disadvantaged individuals to ensure the achievement of a better life for all. We are therefore comitted to increasing the participation of these individuals in all levels of our business.

We also realize our social responsibility role in nation building and the upliftment of all South Africans. We are therefore committed to economic transformation wereby all South Africans are meaningfully integrated into the economy.
AVBOB Insurance offers a comprehensive range of policies to meet the wide ranging needs in the funeral market.

In designing these policy options, due consideration is always given to the cultural and ethnic diversity of our country, with the result that 80% of all new AVBOB policies are issued to individuals and families from previously disadvantaged communities.

AVBOB policyholders who make use of AVBOB Funeral Services for the burial of all lives covered under the policy, also enjoy substantial benefits such as a free coffin plus value discounts on optional extras such as the funeral service and tombstones.
