Paradise Marketing, 10 Top Brands Nominated for AVN Awards

VISTA, Calif.—Paradise Marketing has been nominated for two top distribution awards at the upcoming AVN Awards, which recognize the specialty distributor for bringing the world’s most recognizable and trusted condom and lubricant brands to adult retailers. The company’s most reputable customers also were nominated in their respective categories, honoring each drugstore mainstay for excellence in manufacturing, marketing and consumer appeal. Paradise Marketing was nominated for Best Condom Manufacturer by AVN. Astroglide was honored with a nomination for Best Lubricant Manufacturer by AVN and Outstanding Lubricant Product or Line by the AVN “O” Awards. Named for its top performance, superior quality and No. 1 sales reputation, Astroglide most recently received accolades following the release of Astroglide Diamond Gel, the first-ever blended silicone gel to feature refined coconut oil that remains thick and smooth without the use of preservatives. Whether for anal sex or outstanding masturbation, this lubricant stays slick even under water and won’t drip or dissolve – no matter how much action it gets. Blossom Organics also was named for AVN’s Best Lubricant Manufacturer, recognizing the boutique drugstore brand’s reputation for pure ingredients expertly formulated for women looking for a natural way to find intimate comfort and blissful intimacy. The manufacturer boasts 26 years in the sexual wellness business and worked with a female developer from the skincare and bodycare industries to create all-natural options that complement women’s unique chemistry. Eight top-selling condoms – both big-name and boutique brands – were nominated for AVN’s Best Condom Manufacturer: Durex, Atlas, Billy Boy, Lifestyles, Kimono, Snakeskin, Trojan and One Next Generation. With an array of options on shelves, AVN voters hand-selected and highlighted only the top-selling and most dependable varieties in the contraception category. “I’ve been in the condom and lubricant business for decades and it’s an honor to be nominated alongside so many respected companies and brands,” Paradise Marketing CEO Dennis Paradise said. “I’d like to thank AVN and everyone who nominated Paradise Marketing and our supporting brands for these key awards. We look forward to celebrating with our friends and colleagues in January!” The AVN “O” Awards will be announced Jan. 22 during the annual Adult Entertainment Expo, while the AVN Awards – lovingly deemed the “Oscars of porn” – will take place Jan. 24 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas, hosted this year by adult stars Alexis Texas and Tommy Pistol.
