Our story
It began in 2006, with one promise made to one family.
Mr Vezokuhle Norman Nala founded Amathole Funerals with a conviction that a dignified farewell should never depend on what a family can afford. That conviction turned a single Durban office into one of the fastest-growing funeral houses in the country.
Today the name carries 56 branches across KwaZulu-Natal, Gauteng and Mpumalanga, a national fleet, and teams who answer the phone at 3am because grief keeps no office hours. What has not changed is the promise: we treat every service as though the family were our own.
“We do not arrange funerals. We carry families through the hardest week of their lives.”
Our Mission
To build long-term relationships with the families we serve, and to meet every need with innovative, exceptional service.
Our Vision
To deliver funeral services of a quality that consistently exceeds the expectations of the families who trust us.
Our Purpose
To stand among the most respected funeral service companies in Southern Africa through consistency, never compromise.
