Latino Business Alliance Partnership
The Salem Chamber and the Latino Business Alliance are striving to create a stronger, more unified business community through increasing opportunities for education and mentoring between Latinos and non-Latinos.
Latino-owned businesses are the fastest growing sector of the U.S. economy, creating jobs and economic growth across the country. According to the 2007 U.S. Census, Latinos account for nearly 44 percent of the population growth in Oregon alone. By 2012, Latinos represented over $4.5 billion in purchasing power for the state, and $881 million in the Salem Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA).
