ABOUT MICOY HAMILTON
FOUNDER, Nifty Concept Inc.
Micoy Hamilton is the founder, CEO, and owner of Nifty Concept Inc., a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) providing medical equipment, office, and janitorial supplies.
Soon after obtaining his degree in Aeronautics Technology, Mr. Hamilton worked as a volunteer in nursing homes, where he saw a need to provide durable medical equipment. Shortly thereafter, he started his business, Nifty Concept Inc. Initially, he concentrated on providing specific types of equipment, but later decided to scale his business differently to satisfy the market need, and to be able to sell more products.
Mr. Hamilton won large contracts with the Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR), Department of Emergency Management (DEM), NYC Fire Department (FDNY), and Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) to provide medical and janitorial supplies.
Mr. Hamilton’s tips for winning contracts with the City are to network, to create relationships, and to keep trying. Also, he states that he is always honest with the agencies’ procurement officers and believes in developing relationships based on trust.

- NYC-certified or eligible to apply to be certified M/WBEs
