Online Purchase among Three Populations

We asked Hispanics, African-Americans and the General Population whether they had purchased anything online in the past 12 months. The study was conducted in September of 2003.

- Among Hispanics, about 18% had purchased something online. The heaviest buying age group was 35-54 year old men.

- Among African-Americans, 24% had purchased something online. The 55+ age group had the lowest purchase levels (15%).

- In the General Population, 46% had purchased something online in the past 12 months. The 55+ age group was very low (28%). 18-34 year olds were the heaviest buying age group (65%).

In February 2004, Synovate Diversity will launch the 11th edition of the U.S. Hispanic Market Report, considered the bible in the industry. This Report has been credited with having the closest estimates of Hispanic population numbers available, compared with U.S. Census figures published later. In addition, the extensive primary research conducted to produce this Report is available nowhere else. Readers will find valuable consumer data like the information above.

The new Report, with over 340 pages of new primary research information on the Hispanic Consumer market of the U.S., will include expanded segmentation of Hispanic acculturation acculturation, culture changes resulting from contact among various societies over time.
