The award, accepted by Martin G. Cerda, President of Encuesta, Inc., is one of 36 granted to suppliers nationwide who exemplify a commitment to service, quality, cost, innovation and minority spend, and who continually demonstrate the passion and integrity required to maintain a valued partnership with Coors. The Gold Suppliers are recognized for providing world-class expertise.
"Encuesta, Inc. is incredibly honored by this recognition of our efforts on their behalf," said Cerda. "It is a privilege to work with a company that is so widely recognized for their proven commitment to supporting the Hispanic community. The experience of serving a growing brand in an otherwise stagnant product category is refreshing."
This further supports Encuesta, Inc.'s goal of delivering reliable solutions to its clients through objective analysis and proven insights. "... His [Cerda's] team has continually demonstrated industry-leading expertise in the design, implementation and evaluation of market research," said J. Moncada, Jr., Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer of Bromley Communications, LLC., the largest Hispanic marketplace agency in the U.S. "There is no doubt that the reason Encuesta is successful in demonstrating its marketing research prowess is because Martin exhibits a constant focus on excellence and an unyielding commitment to customer service."
Encuesta, Inc. is committed to diminishing the knowledge gap that exists regarding the U.S. Hispanic community. One way in which the company achieves this is by making findings discovered through their self-funded Hispanic public opinion poll, Americanos Poll(R), available to the public. The intent is to promote thought, dialogue, and understanding of this distinct group and to give a voice to the U.S. Hispanic population. In this way, the company hopes to provide a benefit for industries and sectors that serve Hispanics, as well as the public at large. "We're continually researching and learning about the diverse Hispanic population in order to promote the community's thoughts and convey them to the public and to our clients in a manner that adds strategic value to their business," added Cerda.

These materials are designed around the 2008 theme, “Take Action to Prevent an Allergic Reaction,” (Tome Medidas para Prevenir las Reacciones Alérgicas) and help operators reinforce the importance of reducing the incidence of food allergy reactions in the establishment by focusing on five weekly themes:

* Know the Common Food Allergens (Conozca las sustancias alergénicas más comunes)

* Communication with the Customer (Cómo comunicarse con los clientes)

* Avoiding Cross-Contact (Cómo evitar el contacto cruzado)

* When Mistakes Happen (Cuando ocurren errores)

* Symptoms of an Allergic Reaction (Los síntomas de las reacciones alérgicas)
