In 1982, Hispanic Business magazine was looking for an indicator
of the growth and maturity of the Hispanic marketplace in the
United States. Previously, other business media largely ignored
this sector. Thus was born the list of the 500 biggest companies.
When it started, the list included 400 companies with total
revenues of $3.71 billion. Also, more than one-quarter of the
companies were from California, followed by Texas and Florida.
Today, the list boasts 500 companies with total revenues of
$36.6 billion. The most represented states are Florida, with
125 companies, followed by California (104) and Texas (74).
To qualify for the list, companies must be Hispanic-owned
and show revenues of more than $5 million. ESN is one of 63
companies that are new to the list.

global security. The U.S. military and government count on
