Rock Candy Toys is making
its debut this month, with
plans to offer a range of
decadent styles to satisfy
even the most demanding
sexual sweet tooth cravings.
While details of the new
collection are currently still
under wraps, distributor and
retail buyers are advised to
“save room for candy!” in
their January orders because something is coming
that they will not want to miss. The Rock Candy

longtime industry vets with a keen eye for what
consumers want. Established by a powerhouse
team with vast experience in both product design/
manufacturing and marketing, Rock Candy Toys is
slated to draw mass appeal with never-before-seen
delectable creations.

Rouge, Synergy
Erotic Start Joint
Sales, Marketing
Venture
Two leading manufacturers in the
pleasure products sector have inked a
joint sales and marketing agreement
that will help propel both companies
far beyond what could have been
achieved individually.
Luxury bondage manufacturer
Rouge Garments and toy
manufacturer Synergy Erotic entered
into a multi-tiered agreement that
will involve various initiatives,
including shared business
development personnel to represent
both companies simultaneously,
combined sales and marketing
strategies, the pursuit of untapped
markets, and doing joint trade-show
participation.
“I am unaware of any adult
industry companies entering into
an agreement quite like this; Rouge
Garments brings an entirely different
sales and marketing perspective,
as well as customer base, to this
partnership than does Synergy Erotic,
giving both Rouge and Synergy
Erotic wonderful opportunities to
explore sales techniques, customer
bases, and marketing strategies
previously unknown to each
company individually,” Synergy
Erotic CEO Bob Wolf said. “It is
my belief our two very diverse
companies will complement one
another in virtually every way.”
Rouge Garments CEO Farah
Shaikh echoed Wolf’s sentiment.
“We entered the U.S. market only
a short time ago and realized early
on we could benefit from some type
of partnership with a U.S.-based
company that had Rouge’s best
interest in mind, and in Synergy
Erotic we have found just such a
partner,” Shaikh said.
Rouge Garments manufactures
handmade (in the U.K.) fetish
products in a variety of styles,
colors and materials. Synergy Erotic
manufactures adult toys of superior
quality at aggressive price points in
attractive packaging.
