Why is the Hispanic Market important?
Here are some facts!
Hispanics spent 1.3 trillion U.S. dollars in 2015. The buying power is expected to increase to 1.7 trillion U.S. dollars by 2020. (Statista – Buying power of Hispanic consumers in the United States from 1990 to 2020 (in trillion U.S. dollars)
Hispanics currently make up around 18% of the total U.S. population and are the second-fastest growing demographic group (after Asians). (Pew Research Center – How the U.S. Hispanic population is changing)
For some U.S. Hispanic consumers, Spanish and bilingual content online are still signals that you want to engage with them. (Google – “New research shows how to connect with U.S. Hispanics online)
The number of Spanish keyword searches has increased from about 65% to 200% across key categories, such as auto, food, beauty, and others, between 2011 and 2014. (Google Data, Auto, Telecommunications, Entertainment, Food, Pharmaceutical, Beauty, January 2011–December 2014.)
