STOREROTICA Magazine, the national trade publication for the owners and operators of adult retail stores and lingerie
boutiques has once again partnered with the producers of the Adult Novelty Manufacturers Expo (ANME) as event host for the 2012 STOREROTICA Award Show. Held at the Los Angeles Marriott Burbank Airport, the annual ANME Founders Show will once again feature the top brands in the adult toy and novelty industry, July 14-16. In addition to the awards gala being held on the evening of July 15th, STOREROTICA will be providing press coverage both before and after the show for adult retail storeowners and buyers.
“Gathering at the ANME has become standard operating procedure for professionals in the adult retail industry,” says Kristofer Kay, Editor of STOREROTICA Magazine. “STOREROTICA couldn’t be happier to be part of the leading adult novelty expo once again and look forward to presenting our annual awards.”
Recognizing excellence in adult retail community, the STOREROTICA Awards honors the best on both the brick and mortar storefront, distributing and manufacturing levels. This year, 11 categories will be honored, including one brand new category, 
“Boutique Brand of the Year” (honoring those companies who manufacture five or fewer product collections), as well as such mainstays as “Novelty Company of the Year,” “Distributor of the Year”, “Hot Product of the Year” and “Retailer of the Year” (both independent and chain locations), among others. The pre-nominating site is currently open to industry professionals. The Final STOREROTICA Awards Ballot will be featured online only in June 2012.
“Our 2012 reception marks the second time that the STOREROTICA Awards will be presented at ANME,” Kay continues. “ Presenting at such a special venue not only helps reflect the totality of our industry but also celebrates the continual innovation and camaraderie found within.”
