Ethnic marketing is an important topic for managers in the United States. Russian-speaking community is one of the fastest growing markets in this country. Based on Census Statistics 2000 there are over 5 million Russian speakers living in the United States today.


In Washington State there are more than 200,000 people from this ethnic group. This population is rapidly growing at a rate of 10,000 people a year.


Russian-speaking community is very diverse. A person from a small town in Ukraine will probably have different buying habits than someone from Moscow, Russia.


Multi-generational families are another important aspect to remember when targeting this group of people. Grandparents might not speak a word of English and their grandchildren might consider English their first language.


Nevertheless, language is what unites the Russian speakers. Therefore, Russian media such as newspapers, radio, and TV is the best way to reach this community.
