Pasadena, CA – May 1, 2026 – Inter-Con Security announced today that President and CEO Henry Hernandez was honored last night at the 2026 Latino Leaders Index 500 Awards, accepting recognition on behalf of himself and his father, Rick Hernandez. The award recognizes both leaders for their contributions to building one of the largest and most prominent Latino-owned businesses in the United States. Inter-Con is ranked as the twenty-first largest Latino-owned business in the United States.
The Latino Leaders Index 500 represents an extraordinary effort to identify, research, and celebrate the nation’s top Latino-owned and operated businesses — measuring their impact by revenue, workforce, and leadership. Inter-Con’s inclusion at #21, with an annual revenue of $1.3 billion and a workforce of more than 40,000 individuals worldwide, reflects the company’s standing as one of the largest minority-owned enterprises in the country.
Together, Rick and Henry Hernandez represent the second and third generation of Hernandez family leadership that have shaped Inter-Con Security into the largest minority-owned and operated security company in the world — a legacy built on integrity, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to service, with operations spanning North America, South America, and Africa.
“This recognition reflects the work of thousands of Inter-Con security professionals whose dedication and commitment make this company what it is,” said Henry Hernandez. “Our family has poured everything into building this company, and it is an honor to carry that legacy forward. We are proud of our heritage, and our people, and proud to represent the strength of Latino-owned business in America.”
Inter-Con Security congratulates all honorees recognized at the 2026 Latino Leaders Index 500 ceremony and looks forward to continuing to raise the standard for excellence in the security industry.
