STOREROTICA set to launch 2023 Pre-Nominations voting process!

Email ballot will let SE readers decide which companies, individuals and stores deserve to make the Final SE Awards Ballot!

The STOREROTICA Awards, established in 2007, have consistently honored the best-of-the-best in the world of pleasure products and adult retail. They are also, for all intents and purposes, ā€œreaderā€™s choiceā€ awards, as they are meant to be voted on exclusively by the readers of SE Magazine. Thus, the 2023 SE Award nominees will once again be chosen by its readers via a direct email survey, which will be sent out to all readers this week.

The 2023 SE Awards will once again be presented live, in person, on July 11 at the ANME Founders Show in Burbank, California. STOREROTICA is also distributing the Official ANME Program Guide, a pocket-sized magazine that will offer complete listings of all ANME exhibitors, a full ANME agenda, the 2023 SE Award nominees and more.

For 16 years, the STOREROTICA Awards have revered those in both the brick-and-mortar storefront, distributing, and manufacturing levels. The 16 returning categories honored this year will include mainstays: Pleasure Product Company of the Year, Distributor of the Year, BDSM/Fetish Company of the Year, Boutique Brand of the Year, Lubricant Company of the Year, New Product of the Year, Foreign Manufacturer of the Year, Brand Ambassador of the Year and two Retailer of the Year Awards (for independent and chain locations).

Two new categories were introduced in 2022: Businessman and Businesswoman of the Year. Weaving through this yearā€™s awards will also be the announcement of inductees to the SE Hall of Fame. Pre-nomination votes will be accepted via the email survey until May 25.

ā€œThis awards process will help us by receiving pre-nom and final voting tallies in almost real-time from a wider field of qualified recipients who work with these products and vendors in an almost daily capacity,ā€ says Kristofer Kay, SEā€™s head of sales and marketing. ā€œHaving the opportunity to celebrate our partners and friends marks the highlight of our year here at STOREROTICA. Our continued gratitude goes to the Founders and the ANME crew led by Val Jones for what will be another wonderful evening for the adult retail industry in Burbank.”

All ANME attendees and exhibitors are invited to join in for food and drinks at the 2023 STOREROTICA Awards Show on July 11. For more information, visit www.Storerotica.com, email SEā€™s Kristofer Kay (kris@edpublications.com) or call (727) 723-8827.
