1 Hispanic Businesses & Entrepreneurs Drive Growth in the New Economy 2 nd Annual Report 2014 An intelligence briefing brought to you by: Copyright 2014, Geoscape and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.
2 Executive Summary Cesar Melgoza, Founder & CEO, Geoscape Foreword Although much deserved attention is paid to the dramatic growth of U.S. Hispanic consumers, Hispanic businesses also have become a strategic growth opportunity within the U.S. economy. That is why Geoscape produces this annual report. Businesses owned and managed by Hispanic professionals are increasingly likely to employ American workers of all backgrounds and contribute progressively more to the tax revenue of local, state and federal government entities enabling our economy to stay strong. Furthermore, the well-being of Hispanic businesses is in the interest of all Americans and others who depend on the U.S. economy. That is, as the non-hispanic white population ages, retires and depends on social security and pensions, Hispanic entrepreneurs will begin to bear more of the burden to thrust the economy forward. Hispanic entrepreneurs are more youthful, connected digitally and more socially engaged than nonhispanics overall. However, this asset must not be neglected; it is everyone s business to support the prosperity of Hispanic businesses because the multiplier effect of their growth will need to fuel more American jobs and income in the years to come. In the face of difficult circumstances gaining employment in corporations, Hispanics create their own path to wealth through entrepreneurship this is an American value that Hispanics embrace wholeheartedly. In this report, you ll find that Hispanic businesses are growing at more than twice the rate of all U.S. firms. You will also see that Hispanic businesses contribute nearly $500 billion in revenue to the national economy that number will continue to increase. Additionally, you will find that the regions of growth may not be those you would expect, as Hispanic households and businesses spread throughout the nation. We look forward to your comments on this report so that we may continue to evolve this publication into a more useful resource that guides decision making at all levels. The United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (USHCC), the country s largest Hispanic business organization, advocates on behalf of these enterprises through our network of more than 200 chambers and business associations, as well as over 220 major corporate partners nationwide. The USHCC is proud to once again partner with Geoscape, one of the nation s leading business intelligence firms, to launch the second installment of our Hispanic Business and Entrepreneurs report. While the economic contributions of the Hispanic business community have become clear, this annual study is critically important in conveying the impact Hispanic enterprises have on all aspects of our nation s well-being, including household wealth and purchasing power. In this report under the visionary leadership of its Founder and CEO, Cesar Melgoza Geoscape has provided updated, unbiased data that highlights the burgeoning influence of America s Hispanic businesses. The findings presented in the subsequent pages serve as a reputable source of information for policy makers, corporate executives, members of the media, and researchers who seek a complete and insightful understanding of the Hispanic market and its thriving entrepreneurial community. Javier Palomarez, President & CEO of the USHCC At the USHCC, while we are proud to advocate on behalf of business owners who happen to be of Hispanic descent, we never forget that we are first and foremost American businesses. Every tax bill we pay, every job we create, every product we manufacture and every service we provide goes to benefit our nation s economy. The significance of this study, therefore, cannot be overstated. The insights presented in the report showcase the evolution of this vibrant entrepreneurial segment and make bold predictions of unprecedented growth in regions not traditionally associated with large Hispanic populations. Throughout all corners of the United States, Hispanic entrepreneurs play a crucial role in supporting the growth of local communities. They create American jobs, maintain our leadership in global markets, and contribute toward the mutual prosperity that makes America s economy the greatest in the world.
3 The Changing Landscape of Entrepreneurs in the U.S. New data from Geoscape indicates that the number of Hispanic-owned businesses is expected to grow to more than 3.22 million this year, representing a staggering growth rate of 43% since The figure is more than double the growth rate for all U.S. firms. According to the same report, the growth rate for all U.S. firms between 2007 and 2014 is estimated at 20.2%. Between 2002 and 2007, the growth rate for Hispanic-owned businesses was 44% compared to 17.8% for all U.S. firms. On the next page is a breakdown of the growth in Hispanic-owned businesses by U.S. Census Division, indicating where the growth is occurring. Changes in Ethnic Composition of Business Owners Number of Hispanic- Owned Businesses in the U.S million 2.26 million 3.22 million (Projected) As we witness the shift in demographics of the U.S. population, spurred by post-recession optimism about entrepreneurship, new data suggests the entrepreneurial landscape is shifting also. The most recent data shows the Latino share of all new entrepreneurs is 20.4%, compared to 16% a decade ago. White Black Latino Asian Other 4% 3% 3% 6.1% 16% 20.4% 9% % 8.8% 61.2%
4 Percent Increase in Hispanic-Owned Businesses by U.S. Census Division 2007 to 2014* The fastest growth in Hispanic-owned businesses continues to occur in the Southern Census divisions. It is projected that the number of Hispanic-owned businesses in the East South Central Census Division will grow by 59% from 2007 to 2014, while the South Atlantic Census Division will grow by 57% during that same period. These areas have seen considerably greater Hispanic migration compared to the rest of the country and much of this growth can be attributed to the Carolinas, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee and Kentucky. Further evidence of this explosive growth in Hispanic-owned businesses can be established in the fact that for all U.S. firms, the growth rate for the South Atlantic Census Division is projected at 27%, while the growth rate for the East South Central Census Division is projected at only 19%. Not only is the South Atlantic Census Division the fastest growing area for entrepreneurial activity, but the division is now the largest in terms of sheer number of Hispanic-owned businesses. We project the number of Hispanic-owned businesses in 2014 to reach 893,867, up from 570,200 in We project the Pacific Census Division to grow to 808,660 Hispanic-owned businesses in 2014, a figure that represents an increase of more than 200,000 since Projected Percent Increase in Number of Hispanic-Owned Businesses from 2007 to 2014* +35% Pacific +44% Mountain +42% West North Central +32% East North Central +31% New England +29% Middle Atlantic +57% South Atlantic +46% West South Central +59% East South Central *Projected
5 The number of Hispanic-owned businesses and entrepreneurs in the U.S. has grown exponentially over the past decade, and despite the recession Hispanics continue to experience a higher rate of self-employment than the general population at large. Business Ownership by Hispanicity Segment One distinguishing aspect of Hispanic business owners in the U.S. is in its diverse representation across bi-lingual and bicultural segments. While a growing number of Hispanic business owners belong to the Americanizado or HA1 segment, 54% are considered bilingual and bi-cultural, fitting into Geoscape s Hispanicity classifications HA2 through HA4. These entrepreneurs are comfortable speaking either the English or Spanish language, and identify with both cultures. According to Geoscape, 40% of today s Hispanic business owners belong to the Americanizado or HA1 segment, a figure that has grown by 5% since However, the same study reveals a 16% one-year growth in the percent of Hispanic business owners who either belong to the Nueva Latina or HA2 segment or the Hispano or HA4 segment. One quarter of Hispanic business owners belong to the Hispano or HA4 segment, making this group the second largest segment among Hispanic business owners. Consequently, this segment continues to have significant influence in entrepreneurial activity among Hispanics. The figure emphasizes the fact that many Hispanic immigrants bypass seeking employment with established firms for an opportunity to establish their own business -- by necessity or choice. Hispanicity segments are a proprietary metric developed by Geoscape to help marketers better understand the level and degree to which segments of the Hispanic population have adopted American culture, language, and traditions. Those Hispanics who are self-employed (rather than a business owner) also follow a similar trend. Those belonging to the Americanizado or HA1 segment, and those belonging to the Hispano or HA4 segment are among the two largest segments for Hispanics who are self-employed. Furthermore, the study reveals a 24% increase from 2013 to 2014 in the percent of self-employed Hispanics who belong to the Americanizado or HA1 segment. Percentage of Business Owners and Self-Employed by Hispanicity Segment All Hispanics Hispanic Business Owners Self-Employed Hispanics 40% 36% 35% 30% 26% 25% 13% 14% 11% 15% 16% 16% 10% 6% Americanizado* Nueva Latina* Bi-Cultural Hispanic* Hispano* 9% 6% Latinoamericana* *HA1: Americanizado. English dominant (nearly no Spanish); born in US and often 3rd+ generation; has few Hispanic cultural practices. HA2: Nueva Latina. English preferred (some Spanish); born in U.S. and typically 2nd generation; some Hispanic cultural practices and often retro-acculturate. HA3: Bi-Cultural Hispanic. Bilingual (equal or nearly); immigrated as child or young adult; has many Hispanic cultural practices. HA4: Hispano. Spanish preferred (some English); immigrated as adult and in U.S. 10+ years; predominant Hispanic cultural practices. HA5: Latinoamericana. Spanish dominant (nearly no English); recent immigrant as adult (less than 10 years ago); primarily Hispanic cultural practices and identifies with home country more so than U.S. Hispanic.
6 Hispanic Business Owners Wealth Statistics versus All Hispanic Households One of the reason so many Hispanics start their own business is the opportunity for financial reward. Among all U.S. Hispanic households, 37% earn greater than $50,000 in household income. However, among Hispanic business owners, 57% have a household income of greater than $50,000. Hispanic business owners are 82% more likely than Hispanics overall to earn between $100,000 and $149,999 and two and a half times as likely to earn in excess of $150,000. All Hispanic Households Hispanic Business Owners 33% 22% 32% 14% 10% 15% 10% 15% 8% 14% 5% 13% < $25k $25k - $49k $50k - $74k $75k - $99k $100k - $149k > $150k Hispanic Business Owners versus All U.S. Households Nearly 30% of Hispanics who are small business owners earn $100,000 or more in household income. Comparatively, 20% of all U.S. households earn more than $100,000 in annual household income. As a result, Hispanic business owners are 18% more likely to earn between $100,000 and $149,999 and 42% more likely to earn more than $150,000 in household income when compared to the general U.S. adult population. All U.S. Hispanic Business Households Owners Index Less than $25k 17% 10% 62 Less than $50k 49% 43% 89 $50k - $74k 17% 15% 88 $75k - $99k 14% 15% 109 $100k - $149k 12% 14% 118 $150k or more 9% 13% 142 Nielsen Scarborough USA Study Release I
7 As businesses rebound from the recession, more companies are re-investing in their businesses, creating greater demand for products and services from banks and financial institutions. Many financial institutions are banking on the growth of small business, with minority and Hispanic-owned firms at the center of U.S. economic expansion. The Impact of Hispanic-Owned Businesses on the Financial Sector Hispanic business owners take advantage of commercial banking services and invest at a significantly higher rate when compared to the general Hispanic population. According to data from Geoscape and Scarborough, Hispanic business owners are 56% more likely to conduct online banking with their primary bank and 83% more likely to invest in the stock market. Other banking services such as online bill pay and home re-financing are also utilized at a significantly higher rate when comparing Hispanic business owners to the general U.S. Hispanic population.

8 The Contribution of Hispanic Businesses to the American Economy Hispanic-owned businesses are growing at a phenomenal pace. Since 2007, the growth rate is nearly double that of the growth rate for all U.S. firms. From 2002 to 2007 we witnessed a 44% growth in the number of Hispanic businesses. The trend has continued for more than a decade and the economic impact of Hispanic businesses is also phenomenal. Today, Hispanic-owned businesses are our nation s fastest growing business community and at the forefront of our nation s economic recovery. Hispanic-owned businesses generated more than $358 Billion in 2007 and are projected to reach $486 Billion in revenues in Total Sales Receipts for Hispanic-Owned Businesses $254B $358B $486B (Projected) The Contribution of Hispanic Businesses to the American Economy There is little doubt that Hispanic-owned businesses will continue to be a major factor in the economic recovery of the United States. Whether their businesses are small, familyowned restaurants; landscaping and construction firms with a few to a dozen employees; or major consumer packaged goods producers that employ thousands of workers. Hispanic-owned businesses are fast becoming the bell-weather for future growth. Their relatively young age cohorts, increasing household incomes, and impact on the financial sector paint a very positive picture for the American economy during the next decade or more.
