PHS International Receives StorErotica Award Nomination

PHOENIX — PHS International announced that it has received a nomination for the upcoming 2014 StorErotica Awards scheduled for July 13 during the ANME Founders Show in Burbank, California.

The brand-focused manufacturer has been named in the Boutique Brand of the Year category, recognizing the small business for excellence in producing specialty brands with mass market appeal.

The award is reserved for manufacturers that produce quality products packaged and merchandised to facilitate steady sales while maintaining the quality control and charm of a small boutique-style business.

PHS said it boasts six brands, each with a target demographic and signature theme, and this year the company has developed its presence within the soft bondage, couples and gay markets.

Among the company's most notable advancements this year was the expansion of the Bijoux de Nip line of intimate nipple adornments, introducing a line of lux clamps featuring natural feathers in vibrant color combinations.

The company has also expanded its cock ring selection to offer a range of styles, from stretchy nitrile in multiple sizes to stainless steel with colorful enamel inlay or classic pattern etching.

“It’s an honor to be recognized in this competitive category and to be considered among so many respected and popular brands,” CEO Chuck Harnish said. “We’ve had an incredibly successful year maintaining a strong fulfillment rate while expanding our offerings to reach an even broader consumer range. Thanks to all who nominated PHS International for Boutique Brand of the Year — we look forward to seeing our industry friends at the awards show in July."
