Driven by sustained population growth and active labor force participation, the Hispanic market is consolidating as one of the key driving forces for long-term economic prosperity in the United States.
The importance of the Latino market in the United States is the result of continued population growth, fueled by immigration and a high birth rate within the Latino population. This population expansion has directly translated into greater incorporation into the U.S. labor market and, consequently, a significant increase in purchasing power, transforming it into a highly relevant consumer and producer market.
This demographic and economic expansion is not just a trend of the past, but a projection into the future. The growth rate of Latin American GDP, which was approximately 85% higher than that of the overall US GDP between 2011 and 2021, underscores its role as a fundamental pillar for the development and resilience of the country's economy, promising to continue to be a key driving force in the years to come.
