Founded in 1962, Service Corporation International has grown through strategic acquisitions to become a dominant consolidator in the deathcare industry. The company operates through two primary business segments: Funeral Home Operations and Cemetery Operations. Its funeral segment provides professional services, facilities, and merchandise such as caskets and urns, while the cemetery segment focuses on burial plot sales, memorials, and perpetual care. By clustering its locations and centralizing back-office functions, SCI achieves significant operational efficiencies. The company's extensive geographic footprint spans across 44 U.S. states, eight Canadian provinces, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Its scale and recognizable brands provide a strong competitive position in a highly fragmented market.
