Victor Manuel Mayer and his partner Luis Durazo last year launched International Data Collection, Inc., a Market Research data collection company in Chula Vista, California. Less than a year old, the company has already exceeded over $1,000,000 in profitable sales and employs over 100 employees, many of who are Hispanic.

Mr. Mayer and Mr. Durazo launched IDC with only one client and now have a solid client base of over ten reputable companies. Both gentlemen are in their early 30's and have worked extremely hard to make the company the success that it has become.

Working together, the two partners recently acquired a second building to further expand their business. With this aquisition, IDC hopes to bolster its current research work in Latin America.

IDC recently made a large computer equipment donation to a school in Tijuana, Mexico for underprivileged children.

Victor and Luis are a terrific example of Hispanic entrepreneur spirit.
