AmFirst Cullman Branch Celebrates Grand Reopening

AmFirst celebrated the grand reopening of its newly rebuilt Cullman Branch on September 10, marking a renewed investment in the community the credit union has proudly served for nearly five decades.

Located at 300 4th Ave SW, the Cullman Branch opened in 1979. In 2025, AmFirst began a full rebuild of the location, demolishing the existing branch and constructing an entirely new facility. Throughout construction, the Cullman team continued serving members from a temporary branch on the property.

The grand reopening brought together AmFirst employees and leadership, along with members of the Cullman Area Chamber of Commerce, school board representatives, and community leaders, to celebrate the new branch’s completion.

“AmFirst made a decision in 1979 to be part of the Cullman community,” said AmFirst President and CEO Kevin Morris. “To see the exponential growth we’ve experienced and to be part of the downtown renovation here in Cullman means so much to who we are as a community-chartered credit union and to who we want to be for our members.”

AmFirst’s rebuild aligns with Cullman’s broader plans to revitalize its downtown areas. “When you create a district or an area, people want to invest money and make it better,” said Cullman Mayor Woody Jacobs. “Y’all were just a little ahead of the curve, and we really appreciate that.”

AmFirst’s commitment to Cullman extends beyond the walls of its branch. The credit union is a proud member of the Cullman Area Chamber of Commerce and regularly supports community events and initiatives, such as Second Fridays and the Cullman Christkindlmarkt.

Guests enjoyed coffee from Karma’s Coffee House and food from Just 2 Chicks Catering, while Balloons and More provided décor for the celebration. Attendees received a commemorative handcrafted AmFirst clay mug by local artisan Ashley Mercantile.

The newly rebuilt Cullman Branch continues AmFirst’s longstanding commitment to providing convenient, personal financial services to its members and to investing in the communities it serves.
