More and more international suppliers have discovered the vast new Polish market.The coming two years President Kitajima and the Board together with all National Members will carry out energetically the FIAT-IFTA mission: "To advocate mortuary education, funeral product innovation, international programs and services to help members to enhance the quality of service to bereaved families in all countries".
