Zanele Mwale, managing director of the Mwale Group that is hosting the awards, said that her company had been working on the idea since last year.

The IFA awards have been running for more than a decade.
Among the 15 categories in the awards are insurance company of the year, burial society of the year, best funeral suppliers and best newcomer funeral parlour .
