Today we are delighted to reveal the full list of finalists for the 2020 ETO Awards sponsored by Satisfyer. There are 26 awards up for grabs across the following categories: Products, Brands, Distribution, Retail, People, and – a new category for 2020 – Excellence.
In terms of awards that companies can win, Lovehoney and WOW Tech lead the way with 10 nominations each, though Lovehoney is also represented in the People category too. This category has been expanded with three new awards for 2020: Best Sexual Health Ambassador, Best Brand Ambassador, and Best Industry Ambassador.
“We expect there to be great interest in these new awards for individuals,” said ETO editor Dale Bradford. “All of those nominated are inspiring in their own areas and fully deserve to be publicly recognised for the work they do.”
Of the three new Excellence awards two are for specifics – Sustainability and Packaging & Branding – while the third is an overall Grand Prix accolade. When announcing the criteria for the latter, we asked: “Which company or brand do you think is doing just about everything right and so deserves to be recognised as ‘the’ industry leader?” The resulting shortlist ranges from global enterprises to a family run business based in Cornwall.
Details and images of all nominees can be found on pages 68 to 73 of the latest issue of ETO, or you can just choose your favourites from the shortlists right now by visiting www.erotictradeonly.com and clicking on the on-screen link (registration required). Please note that voting will close at 5:00pm GMT on Friday 14th February 2020.
The winners will be presented with their awards on the evening of Sunday March 15th 2020 (the first day of the ETO Show sponsored by Satisfyer) at the Ricoh Arena, Coventry. Further information about the event, along with ticket prices, will be announced in the February issue of ETO but if you would like to be in with a chance of winning FREE tickets to the 2020 ETO Awards make sure you follow @ETOMagazine on Twitter as we will be running exclusive competitions for followers during January.
