Keith Caggiano Leaves Rock Candy; David Joseph To Helm Company

LOS ANGELES—Keith Caggiano—creator and president of Rock Candy Toys—announced he is leaving the company to purse other ventures, and handing the reins over to his partner David Joseph, who currently serves as CEO of the pleasure products manufacturer. Caggiano plans to focus on other brand-building projects, including the expansion of his lines Rock On and and Rock Life recreational enhancement now expanding into sex, drugs and rock ’n’ roll with adult products, cannabis and music for both the adult and mainstream markets under new promotional company Vinyl Records LLC. “David is an absolute gentleman, both as a person and a business partner. It has been a true pleasure to work alongside him,” Caggiano said. “David has a big-picture, visionary mindset. Additionally, the talent-packed Rock Candy staff will continue to produce one of the most exciting lines in adult retail.” Rock Candy Toys was founded in mid-2017 during a casual conversation when Joseph explained his plans to expand into the novelty business with his male pleasure products company, Bedroom Products. Caggiano shared details of the project he had been developing, titled Rock Candy, and the rest is now sweet history. The Rock Candy team set out to conceptualize an artfully curated line of candy-themed sex toys, with a strategy that delved beyond bold color combinations and unique design features. The underlying principle of Rock Candy was rooted in consumer psychology, and the power of facilitating a remarkable retail experience. “We set out to design a distinctive line of toys that consumers would innately respond to; and one that retailers would be excited to showcase,” said Caggiano. “We wanted to deliver something remarkable for retailers and their customers.” Rock Candy established itself as a frontrunner in the adult novelty retail market in January of 2017, marking its debut with full page teaser ads and vibrant trade show booth displays.  Caggiano’s intentionally bold approach immediately secured distribution partnerships around the globe. Currently, Rock Candy is up for several industry award this month, including Outstanding Marketing Campaign for its famed “Wonka’s Willie” retail launch party.  Joseph states, "we appreciate Keith’s contributions to Rock Candy, and we are excited to watch the next evolution of the brand unfold. “I welcome the opportunity to continue to nurture my cherished industry relationships and foster new ones in the adult novelty arena, which is still new and exciting to me,” he continued. “We are stepping into 2019 with a high level of energy and laser-sharp focus on our sales and marketing initiatives; committed to supporting the direct needs of our retail and distributor partners. Our ability to retain and facilitate happy, repeat consumers for Bedroom Products, Red Light District, Rock Candy, and US Arcades is our number one priority.”  Bedroom Products and Rock Candy are set to showcase their separate collections in booths 211 and 212 at the ANME Founders Show, January 13-14 at the Burbank Marriott Hotel.
