 Houston South — Second Edition
Houston, TX (September 12, 2005) - HYP Network's Directorio en Español has begun distribution of the second edition of its directory serving Houston South. The directory's cover features a reproduction of the winning entry of the "Arte de America Hispana Contest" by local artist David Valdez. The contest, which promotes and celebrates the rich and diverse Hispanic culture that is an important part of the community in Houston, is held every year. Today almost one and a half million Hispanics live and work in the Houston metropolitan area. HYPN's goal is to produce a top quality directory that contains valuable information for its users while providing businesses with an efficient, cost effective and highly targeted way to reach one of the fastest growing groups of consumers when they are looking for products and services. Over the next 30 to 60 days copies of Directorio en Español will be distributed door-to-door in areas with a high number of Hispanic households. In addition the directory will be made available in racks located in a number of high traffic locations frequented by Hispanics.
