Cultural Authenticity

Brands recognize diverse cultural identities to strengthen relationships

Implications - Though the Hispanic market is rapidly growing in terms of purchasing power, it remains largely under-served in the commercial marketplace. Brands are beginning to take notice, seeking to create an authentic connection with the Hispanic consumer by incorporating traditional cultural practices, holistically and without Americanization. The use of bi-lingual campaigns or Latino spokespeople communicates that brands are prioritizing the Hispanic population, and the lack of forced assimilation gives these campaigns credence.
