El Tiempo Hispano

What El Tiempo Hispano does

El Tiempo Hispano is a privately held bilingual (Spanish/English) newspaper headquartered in New Castle, Delaware. Founded in 2006 and operating as a for-profit company with 11-50 employees, it runs a dual-channel publication consisting of a bi-weekly print edition (~26 editions per year) and a daily-updated online platform at el tiempohispano.com. The publication covers local, statewide, and global news across categories including Education, Health, Legal and Financial Advice, Business, Sports, Family, Performing Arts, and Youth columns, with a 'Who's Who in the Community' section that highlights Hispanic contributions in Delaware.

Positioned as Delaware's only bilingual newspaper, El Tiempo Hispano occupies an uncontested niche for Spanish/English print and digital news in the state. Its audience spans Hispanics of every social and economic stratum, from corporate executives to newly arrived immigrants, and includes non-Hispanic Delawareans interested in Hispanic community issues. Geographic reach covers all three Delaware counties (New Castle, Kent, Sussex) plus neighboring Chester County PA and Wicomico and Cecil Counties MD, with stated plans to extend across the broader Delaware Valley. Content is original and locally reported rather than aggregated from external sources.

The business model is advertising-based, generating revenue through display ads, classifieds, and job recruitment advertising on both print and digital surfaces. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is provided through a downloadable media kit. Go-to-market is community-led and event-driven, leveraging event coverage, cultural festival promotion, and partnerships with institutions such as La Esperanza, Delaware Technical Community College, and state government to drive readership and advertiser demand. The company has no mobile app, no API surface, no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, and operates independently with no parent company, subsidiaries, institutional investors, or disclosed ownership structure in the source data.
