Item 4.  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

     The annual proxy statement of Hispanic Express,  Inc. ("Hispanic Express"),
dated April 26,  2002,  includes a proposal to elect four  directors to serve on
our Board of  Directors.  Mr. David  Cohen,  one of the four  directors  that is
nominated  for  election,   is  a  retired   partner  of  Arthur   Andersen  LLP
("Andersen"). It is our intention to have Mr. Cohen become a member of the Audit
Committee of Hispanic Express upon his election to our Board of Directors.  This
proposal  is  scheduled  to be voted on June 4, 2002 at our  annual  meeting  of
stockholders.  On May 31, 2002, Andersen notified us that this action will cause
an  independence  problem for Andersen and therefore,  their  resignation as our
independent public accountants.

     Andersen's reports on Hispanic Express'  consolidated  financial statements
for the past two fiscal years  contained  no adverse  opinion or  disclaimer  of
opinion and were not  qualified  or modified as to  uncertainty,  audit scope or
accounting  principles.  Andersen's  report on  Hispanic  Express'  consolidated
financial  statements for 2001 was issued on an unqualified basis in conjunction
with the publication of Hispanic  Express' Annual Report to Stockholders and the
filing of Hispanic Express' Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     During Hispanic  Express' two most recent fiscal years and through the date
of this Form 8-K,  there were no  disagreements  with  Andersen on any matter of
accounting principles or practices,  financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure which, if not resolved to Andersen's satisfaction, would have
caused them to make  reference to the subject  matter in  connection  with their
report on Hispanic Express'  consolidated  financial  statements for such years;
and  there  were  no  reportable  events,  as  listed  in Item  304(a)(1)(v)  of
Regulation S-K.

     Hispanic Express requested that Andersen furnish it with a letter addressed
to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not Andersen agrees
with the foregoing  disclosures.  A copy of such letter,  dated June 4, 2002, is
filed as Exhibit 16 to this Form 8-K in which Andersen states its agreement with
the foregoing disclosures.

     Upon the resignation of Andersen,  the Audit Committee of Hispanic  Express
is in  the  process  of  reviewing  the  selection  of  new  independent  public
accountants to audit the financial  statements of Hispanic  Express for the year
ended December 31, 2002.

Item 7.  Financial Statements, Pro Forma Financial Information and Exhibits.

              16 Letter from Arthur Andersen LLP to the Securities and Exchange
              Commission dated June 4, 2002.
