Description

Providing the most comprehensive and up-to-date information and analysis of US Marketing to Hispanic Moms including the behaviors, preferences, and habits of the consumer.

Hispanic moms’ numbers show their importance: they are one of the core reasons the Hispanic population will stay bicultural, and their influence on mainstream American culture will keep on growing. Hispanic moms are strong and ready to do their part taking care of their children and homes. While the pandemic created some challenges, both working and stay-at-home Hispanic moms chose to look at the positives and carry the weight. As we adjust to the next normal in a post-pandemic world, Hispanic moms will continue to benefit from support and encouragement from family, friends and brands.

Expert analysis from a specialist in the field

This report, written by Juan Ruiz, a leading analyst in the Hispanic Insights sector, delivers in-depth commentary and analysis to highlight current trends and add expert context to the numbers.

Hispanic moms love their families dearly, but having them 24/7 during the pandemic was taxing as normal activities such as entertaining younger children, helping older children with school work and managing finances became more challenging. Still, most Hispanic moms adjusted and created new habits; staying focused on the positives helped them regardless of working full-time or staying-at-home with the children. To connect with Hispanic moms, brands need to offer support and encouragement, keeping in mind that Hispanic culture is a significant component of a Hispanic mom’s identity.
