on Tuesday launched a tag for businesses to mark themselves as"Latinx-owned" in a move designed to support Latino businesses hit hard by the pandemic, the company said.

People using the Yelp site will be able to search for businesses via the tag to channel spending towards the Latino community.Yelp introduced a similar feature for Black-owned businesses in June after the death of George Floyd prompted a upsurge of consumer interest in supporting the Black community.

Latinos opened businesses at a faster rate than any other ethnic group in the past decade, a Stanford University study showed, contributing $500 billion to the U.S. economy. Andrea Aguirre, owner of donut store Art of Donut in San Antonio, Texas, said the company would be introducing the tag.
