Publicitas LHM recently announced a similar agreement with Hoy, the Tribune Corp. ownedSpanish-language newspapers published in Chicago, New York and Los Angeles.

“The seven Hoy andRumbo newspapers target a population of more than 17 million Hispanics in the main Hispanic markets in the country, with a purchasing power of more than $190 billion, who mostly speak Spanish at home. We believe that national advertisers will find, in both Hoy and Rumbo, a unique communication vehicle to create links between their businesses and the Hispanic market”, said Amelie Ferro, Vice President Business Development of Publicitas-LHM.

Publicitas-LHM plans to represent the leading papers in the largest Hispanic markets in select categories within Pharma/Over-the-Counter, Travel, IT & Tech, Entertainment, B2B, and Fashion/Luxury. “We will be our partner papers' national ad sales team for these categories,” says Amelie Ferro, VP of business development at Publicitas-LHM, who says she plans to announce several other partnerships within the next few weeks.
