Why Clients Choose Hope Research Group for Spanish Research
Native Bilingual Moderators
Our moderators are born and raised in the markets they research. They speak the local Spanish variant and understand regional cultural references, allowing natural conversations that produce richer qualitative data.
Flagship Bilingual Capability
Hope Research Group's bilingual fieldwork spans US Hispanic communities in South Florida, the Spanish Caribbean, Central America, and South America. Deliverables can be prepared in English, Spanish, or both, depending on your internal reporting needs.
40 Years of Spanish-Language Research
Since 1985 we have been conducting research in Spanish with consumers across the Caribbean and Latin America for clients including Coca-Cola, Nestle, PepsiCo, Diageo, and P&G. Our track record in Spanish-language fieldwork is unmatched in the region.
In-Country Fieldwork, Not Panel Aggregation
We staff and manage our own recruiters and interviewers across 15+ markets rather than outsourcing to panel aggregators. This gives clients higher participant quality, better show rates, and faster turnaround than typical panel-based approaches.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do Spanish market research studies require native speakers?
Spanish varies significantly by country: vocabulary, idioms, tone, and register differ between Mexican, Colombian, Cuban, Puerto Rican, and Dominican Spanish. A translated questionnaire written in 'neutral' Spanish can create confusion or bias with respondents who speak regional variants. Our native moderators and interviewers match regional speech patterns, building rapport and collecting more accurate data.
Do you offer Spanish-language online surveys?
Yes. We design CATI and web-based surveys in Spanish, recruit from our proprietary Latin American and US Hispanic panels, and report findings in English, Spanish, or both. Sample can be segmented by country of origin, language dominance, and acculturation level.
Can you conduct research across multiple Spanish-speaking markets simultaneously?
Absolutely. Multi-country Spanish-language studies are a core capability. We maintain local fieldwork teams in Jamaica, Trinidad, Barbados, the Dominican Republic, Colombia, Mexico, and South Florida, allowing simultaneous data collection across markets with harmonized questionnaire design and unified reporting.
Do you also cover Spanish speakers in the US?
Yes. Our South Florida office gives us direct access to Cuban-American, Colombian, Venezuelan, Honduran, and Jamaican Spanish-speaking communities across Miami-Dade and Broward counties. We also recruit nationally via online panels for large US Hispanic quantitative studies.
What deliverables do Spanish market research projects include?
Standard deliverables include a topline report, full findings deck, verbatim transcripts (in Spanish with English translation), video highlights reel for qualitative work, data tables and cross-tabulations for quantitative work, and an executive summary. Deliverable language is client's choice.
