Awards

Vic Nigri is not only excited about doing business in Birmingham, but he's also dedicated to helping the community through his business. That dedication has earned him recognition as the Chamber's Small Business of the Month for January.

Nigri is president and co-owner of The Fitness Center with his wife, Beth. The Fitness Center has been in business in Birmingham for 14 years. Employing 10 people, it is a one-on-one personal training and weight loss center. Its goal is to provide clients with a proper environment to improve their fitness level.

Nigri said he's been blessed to do business in Birmingham. "Don't judge this city by what is printed in the newspaper because there is a special quality to this town," he said. "The city is only as good as its citizens and the people that reside in this city are loyal. They support their charities, churches, businesses, sports teams, schools and have good old-fashioned integrity."

Nigri and his business have been quick to give back to the community by donating to several area charities, including Camp Smile-A-Mile.

Recently, The Fitness Center was nominated for the Chamber's Entrepreneur of the Year award. Visit their website at thefitnesscenter.org.
